British Gold Queen’s Beast Coin Designs
As with the other coins released by the Royal Mint, the British Gold Queen’s Beast Coins feature the profile of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse side. But complementing the Queen’s image on these coins are the images of the 10 heraldic beasts represented at her coronation. The designs are courtesy of engraver Jody Clark, who is also responsible for the Queen’s fifth and latest depiction on Britain’s pound sterling coins.
The 10 noble beasts that collectors may admire on the reverse side of these coins are: the Lion of England, the Unicorn of Scotland, the Red Dragon of Wales, the Black Bull of Clarence, the Falcon of the Plantagenets, the White Lion of Mortimer, the Yale of Beaufort, the White Greyhound of Richmond, the White Horse of Hanover, and the Griffin of Edward III.
History of the British Gold Queen's Beast Coins
The inspiration behind this line of mints is the 10 heraldic beasts, whose current statue counterparts can be found in Hampton Court Palace. Originally known as Henry VIII’s ‘King’s Beasts,’ these magnificent creatures are carved in stone, and each stands with the coat of arms of their family of origin.
These beasts oversaw Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation at Westminster Abbey in 1953. The Royal Mint’s British Gold Queen’s Beast Coins pay tribute to these symbols and the royal lineage of the Commonwealth Realms.
