The 2014 1oz Gold UK Lunar bullion coin features the Year of the Horse design from The Royal Mint's Shēngxiào collection. Struck from one troy ounce of 999.9 fine gold, it forms part of the Royal Mint's modern British interpretation of the Chinese zodiac. This Horse issue is the opening release in The Royal Mint's UK Lunar gold bullion programme, making it useful for collectors building a complete gold date and animal set as well as investors who prefer annually changing Royal Mint bullion designs.
