Silver bullion bar referring to the Chinese calendar.

The Chinese year of the Horse is one of the twelve signs in the Chinese zodiac. People born in the year of the Horse are considered energetic, independent and enthusiastic. The horse symbolizes freedom, speed and industriousness, so people under this sign often strive for independence and new adventures. According to Chinese tradition, they are also sociable, but can sometimes act impulsively. The Year of the Horse usually brings a time of dynamic change, development and movement. Recent Horse years include 2002, 2014 and 2026.

The reverse of the silver bar depicts the majestic silhouette of a horse in a dynamic pose, symbolizing the strength, freedom and energy characteristic of this sign of the Chinese zodiac. At the very top, it bears the inscription YEAR OF THE HORSE, and at the very bottom, the year of issue. The obverse features miniature likenesses of all twelve zodiac animals assigned to the Chinese zodiac calendar. On opposite sides, both the weight and purity of the silver are marked.
