Description

The Queen’s Beasts bullion coins are British coins issued by the Royal Mint since 2016. Available in gold and silver, they provide a new and exciting option for investment. The collection is designed to celebrate the centuries of tradition and heritage that came before this young woman was crowned queen.

The Queen’s Beasts are 10 heraldic statues that represent the genealogy of HM Queen Elizabeth II, with each beast depicting a Royal Supporter of England. Upon HM Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953, they stood in front of the temporary western annex of Westminster Abbey and were originally uncoloured except for their shields.

The Red Dragon of Wales – (2nd Edition)

In heraldry, the falcon symbolises single-minded determination. Widely used by Edward IV, the first Yorkist king, his falcon sits upon a golden fetterlock, slightly open to symbolise Edward’s claim to the throne.

The falcon was later adopted by Henry VII, who united the Houses of York and Lancaster. By the reign of Elizabeth I, it had been accepted as an established royal beast.

Bullion has been chosen as an investment by individuals, governments and organisations for thousands of years. In more recent times, people have considered it a hedge against stock market volatility and geopolitical events.
