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.
