I picked up this coin... as you can see, the date on the invoice is late November 2025.
Staying true to my passion, whenever a new coin comes out, and it's on my must-have list, I make sure to snag it right away.
Unfortunately, I can't show you how much the coin is now, as it is totally out with all dealers, including the secondary market on eBay.
The Lunar Ounce Horse is the tenth coin in the Rwandan Lunar Ounce Series. The series is unique for its sharp broken‑glass pattern with frosted and mirror‑like finishes.
Coin Highlights:
Contains 1 oz of .999 fine silver.
The product is in individual plastic packaging. Multiples of 10 come in sheets.
Obverse: Features a mosaic image of a horse. The inscriptions "Lunar Ounce," “2026,” the Chinese sign for "Horse" and the purity are listed along the rim.
Reverse: Displays the official seal of Rwanda and the face value of 50 Francs.
Backed by the Rwanda government.

If you’ve been stacking for a while, you might remember when Rwanda first released its Lunar Ounce coin in 2017. That was only my second year stacking.
Back then, the African Ounce Series was huge. I was always a little jealous of the stackers showing off their Rwanda African Ounce coins. They always carried a premium, so the coins were out of my reach.
The African Ounce series started in 2008, so by 2017 it had already built up 11 years of hype. Each release featured different wildlife and cultural themes, which made the coins even more desirable. There was no way I could collect them... same story with the Perth Mint Lunar Series II... so I never ended up buying any.
Those premiums (basically the extra cost above face value or metal value) came from the limited mintages, the strong designs, and the demand from collectors. So when I say I envied the people flashing their Rwanda African Ounce coins, it’s because owning one was, and still is, something any coin fan would be proud of.
Then 2017 rolled around, and Rwanda offered its first Lunar Ounce coin. And finally, I got my hands on one. The Lunar Ounce Rooster was my very first Lunar coin.
That was the moment I decided I was going to collect the Rwanda Lunar Ounce series.
And now, I have ten!
