| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse rendered at full gallop occupies the central field, depicting the animal in dynamic motion with all four hooves extended, as designed by Canadian artist Aries Cheung to commemorate the Chinese Zodiac Year of the Horse. The Chinese character 馬, meaning 'horse', appears prominently within the composition. The reverse legend CANADA 2014 150 DOLLARS flanks the design, with the artist's initials AC also present in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Canada's lunar gold series draws on the Chinese-Canadian community's deep roots in the country — a population that helped build the Canadian Pacific Railway in the 1880s under brutal conditions, then faced the Chinese Immigration Act of 1923, which barred nearly all Chinese immigration for over two decades. The commemorative framing of these issues carries that weight whether or not the Royal Canadian Mint acknowledges it explicitly.
The .750 fineness is atypical for RCM gold issues, which more commonly use .9999 fine gold. The alloy choice here kept the retail price accessible while hitting a round denomination.
