Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2002 Australian 3000 Dollar Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Year of the Horse - Gold Bullion Coin) is that it has a unique horse design that was created by the Royal Australian Mint's chief engraver, Vladimir Gottwald. The design features a majestic horse standing on a hill, with the sun rising in the background, and it is surrounded by a rim of dolphins, which symbolize intelligence, playfulness, and grace. The coin's design was inspired by the Chinese lunar calendar, which 2002 was the Year of the Horse.
