DID YOU KNOW?

Each year in the Chinese zodiac’s 12-year cycle is ruled by a different sign and one of the five elements, with Fire being the element for 2026. Horses are free-spirited, confident and energetic (they don’t like to be bored), but Fire Horses are known to be bolder and more decisive, and are more likely to be trendsetters and trailblazers.

Steven Rosati

The reverse design by Canadian artist Jai Paek celebrates the Year of the Horse (“馬”) through its folk-art styled depiction of the Chinese zodiac animal, with details on the body, mane and tail corresponding to the ruling element in 2026, Fire. The Horse is paired with its lucky flower, jasmine, which is also the traditional emblem of grace and good fortune; together with the sunflower that symbolizes vitality and loyalty, the flowers help cultivate the energy flow and movement of Fire, which is itself a symbol of transformation and renewal. The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

Jai Paek, Artist

“The Fire Horse is adorned with flames emphasizing its power and energy, while also symbolizing transformation and purification. In addition, the Horse is decorated with the blossoms and petals of the jasmine flower and the sunflower, arranged in a folk-art pattern to reflect the Horse’s importance and relevance to humankind. In contrast to the Horse’s stout traits of strength, vigour, and independence, the jasmine flower symbolizes love, beauty and sensuality, while the sunflower highlights the Horse’s intelligence, vitality, joy, and loyal heart to the one who tamed it.”
