The first official Royal Arms of England was adopted back in 1198 during the final years of the reign of King Richard I, better known as Richard the Lionheart. Over the course of hundreds of years, the Royal Arms has evolved from the Three Lions design of Richard the Lionheart to reflect the expansion of the kingdom and the various monarchs who have sat on the throne over the centuries.

The modern Royal Arms of England was adopted in 1837 when Queen Victoria rose to the throne, bringing an end to the reign of the Hanoverians and ushering in a new era in the United Kingdom. The arms was adjusted to feature a shield reflecting the states that are still a part of the kingdom today: England, Northern Ireland, and Wales.

Queen Elizabeth II is found on the obverse of 2021 10 oz British Silver Royal Arms Coins. The design featured here was created in 2015 by Jody Clark. The right-profile portrait of the Queen depicted on this side of the coin captures Her Majesty at the age of 89 wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown.

Timothy Noad’s version of the modern Royal Arms of England features on the reverse of 2021 British Silver Royal Arms Coins. The design depicts the quartered shield of the Royal Arms with the Three Lions of England in two quadrants, the Lion of Scotland in one quadrant, and the Harp of Ireland in the final quadrant. The shield is topped by the Imperial State Crown and supported by the crowned Lion of England and Unicorn of Scotland.

These 2021 10 oz British Silver Royal Arms Coins are available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The coins in the 10 oz silver release are available in individual plastic capsules.
