The Queens Beast series of silver coins was released by the Royal Mint of England. Each of the 10 mythical or heraldic beasts in the series represents a statue that was gifted to Her Majesty on the day she ascended to the throne. The beasts are all an important part of the history of the monarchy. The 2017 Proof British Queen’s Beast Unicorn 1 Kilo Silver Coin contains 1 kilogram, or 31.15 Troy oz) of .999 pure silver. It has a face value of 500, backed by the United Kingdom. The coins in this series have proven to be incredibly popular amongst collectors, with this larger coin being of more interest to the investor.
