About the Queen's Beasts Series

The Queen's Beasts series is the official Bullion series of 10 coins developed by the Royal Mint from 2016 to 2021.

Its origins date back to the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.

On coronation day,
ten six-foot (approximately 180 cm) heraldic beasts lined the entrance to Westminster Abbey, symbolizing royal lineage, alliances, and the legitimacy of the monarchy.

These statues were sculpted by sculptor James Woodford RA and are currently preserved at the Canadian Museum of History in Quebec, Canada.

In the UK, a stone replica can be seen at Kew Gardens.

Historical Background of the Plantagenet Falcon

The Plantagenet Falcon is one of the important heraldic animals symbolizing the Plantagenet dynasty.

The falcon entered the British royal lineage through King Edward IV of the House of York.

The reverse design features a shield with a small hawk atop an open fetterlock.

This symbolic emblem used by Edward IV to assert his legitimacy to the throne, demonstrating his strong will and legitimacy for the throne.

The hawk was later adopted by Henry VIII and established as the official royal heraldic animal during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.

Reverse Design: Royal Hawk Raising a Shield

The reverse design was created by Jody Clark, a coin designer at the Royal Mint.

The majestic hawk holding the royal shield takes advantage of its large 10-ounce size to depict every feather and sharp gaze in three dimensions with meticulous detail.

The metal weight, purity, and year of issue are clearly marked around the outside, clearly demonstrating its practicality and legibility as a bullion silver coin.

Obverse Design

The obverse features a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the face value "10 POUNDS."

As an official sovereign silver coin guaranteed by the British government, it enjoys high credibility in the international market.

The 10-ounce Silver Coin

Compared to 1-ounce and 2-ounce silver coins, 10-ounce silver coins have distinct characteristics in terms of holding capacity, presence, and liquidity.

However, since the bullion value is the primary consideration when selling, GoldSilverJapan prioritizes the pure silver content when assessing the coin.
