{{/presale}}Struck in celebration of the Lunar Year of the Horse, Provident Metals carries the Australian Lunar Series II 2014 Year of the Horse 1 Kilo Silver Proof coin. Coming to you from the Perth Mint of Australia, each coin is composed of 1 kilo of .999 fine silver, struck in a beautiful proof finish.
The reverse of each 1 Kilo Silver Perth Horse was designed by Tom Vaughan, and features two horses in front of a Chinese landscape, one leaning down to take a drink of water.
The reverse is inscribed with the Chinese character for horse, along with the words “Year of the Horse” and the mintmark P. Each coin has a diameter of 100.6 mm and is 14.6 mm thick.
The obverse of each 2014 Year of the Horse features Ian Rank-Broadley’s Queen Elizabeth II design, along with the coin’s year of issue, weight, fineness and its denomination of 30 dollars.
The 1 Kilo Year of the Horse represents the seventh animal in the Chinese Lunar Zodiac. The Lunar horse — which is part of a 12-year cycle — includes the years 1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002 and 2014. People born in these years are said to be confident, independent and smart.
About the Perth Mint
The Perth Mint was founded in 1899 after gold was discovered in local Australian deposits. The newly-established mint struck gold and silver sovereigns until Great Britain abandoned the gold standard in 1931.
The mint remained under British ownership until July of 1970, when it ceded to the state government of Western Australia. Today, the Perth Mint produces nearly all of the nation’s legal tender bullion coins in its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility.
