The Chinese Calendar series features a new animal each year. 2026 is the year of the Horse. 

In Chinese culture, the horse is one of the most spirited signs of the zodiac. People born under the sign of the Horse are energetic and independent. They are renowned for their lively, enthusiastic and freedom-loving nature.

Surrounded by plum blossom, a symbol much used in Chinese history and art, and lanterns, the horse is depicted in a joyful, childlike manner. The inscription ‘Year of the Horse’ followed by the year 2026 appears in the centre of the coin. The ideogram of the horse appears at the bottom right of the coin.

On the reverse, all the animals of the Chinese zodiac are drawn in a childlike way around the Ying and Yang symbol. A complete cycle of the Chinese zodiac begins in 2018 and lasts until 2029. Each of the twelve years in this period is represented by one of the zodiac animals. The face value is visible in the centre of the denomination and the wording ‘RF’.
