Royal Mint, Queen’s Beasts Completer 5 Gram Gold Bar in TEP (ETA April)

The Queen’s Beasts are ten heraldic creatures that symbolise the royal ancestry of Elizabeth II. As the world watched the coronation of the young queen in 1953, the beasts stood guard as statues outside Westminster Abbey. To honour the longest-reigning monarch in British history, The Queen’s Beasts have been brought together on this square bullion bar that includes Mary Gillick’s coinage portrait of Elizabeth II at its centre.
