Description
2019 Great Britain £100 1oz .9995 Platinum Britannia Queen’s Beasts The Bull
At the coronation of Her Majesty The Queen, 10 heraldic beasts stood guard. The original Queen’s Beasts, sculpted by James Woodford RA for the coronation ceremony held in Westminster Abbey in 1953, each stand six feet tall. The heraldic creatures symbolized the various strands of royal ancestry brought together in a young woman about to be crowned queen. Each proud beast, used as a heraldic badge by generations that went before her, was inspired by the King’s Beasts of Henry VIII that still line the bridge over the moat at his Hampton Court Palace.
The striking design of the Queen’s Beasts Black Bull of Clarence is available in glistening .9995 fine Platinum. The fifth release of the Queen’s Beasts series in 1 oz Platinum, the Bull continues the success of this popular series from The Royal Mint.
