| Additional information |
Tuvalu's relationship with the Perth Mint as a licensing arrangement has produced hundreds of collector issues since the 1990s, with the Lunar series among the more commercially aggressive — new designs released annually with minimal numismatic distinction between them. The 2014 Horse issue was one of several simultaneous gold strikes at differing weights targeting Asian collector markets, where Lunar series pieces from Australian-affiliated mints carry secondary-market premiums driven more by cultural timing than by mintage scarcity.
KM# 199 had a mintage ceiling of 2,500 pieces.
