The Queen’s Beasts: The Lion 1 oz Platinum 2017

The Royal Mint, as one of the key players in the international bullion market, has long provided its customers with the security and quality you would expect from a leading mint with a global reputation. Now a new product is being added to their range - the Queen's Beasts series for all those looking for new investment opportunities. The 'Beasts of the Queen' series celebrates the age-old history of the British crown and the rich heraldry that is associated with it. During the coronation of the British Queen, ten heraldic beasts stood guard. The plaster figures that were created for the occasion were intended to symbolise the various lines of royal heritage. The Royal Mint's highly respected coin designer Jody Clark, whose portrait of the Queen has featured on official UK coins since 2015, has created new images of the Queen's beasts, starting with a lion. Drawing inspiration from the original statues, Jody's design fully captures the menacing and fearless nature of this royal protector.
