At the coronation of Her Majesty The Queen in Westminster Abbey in 1953, 6ft high statues of 10 heraldic beasts stood guard. The heraldic creatures symbolised the various strands of royal ancestry. Each proud beast, used as an 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.

 

Each of these 10 beasts are being produced in 2oz Fine Silver 9999 coins, and promises to be one of the most sought after collections currently available.

 

The Red Dragon of Wales is the third coin in the range and is now also available to add to your bullion investment portfolio.
