The Queens Beast series of coins was introduced to pay tribute to the mythical and heraldic beasts that play an important role in the history of the British Royal Family. Each of the beasts was imagined as a statue and presented to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II upon her coronation. The 2018 Proof British Queens Beast Black Bull 10 oz Silver Coin is the fourth design in the series and features the Black Bull of Clarence. The coin contains 10 Troy oz of .999 pure silver and has been issued a face value of 10, backed by the British government.
Highlights
Your 2018 Proof British Queens Beast Black Bull 10 oz Silver Coins are delivered to you inside of the signature black display box of the Royal Mint. Each of the coins are protected inside of plastic capsules and set within the velvet-lined interior of the display box.
The 2018 Proof British Queens Beast Black Bull 10 oz Silver Coin features the Black Bull of Clarence who was descended to Her Majesty through Edward IV. The shield that the bull is shown supporting features an image of the Royal Arms as they were when borne by Edward IV, his brother Richard III, and also the sovereigns who belonged to the houses of Tudor and Lancaster.
Obverse
The obverse design of the 2018 Proof British Queens Beast Black Bull 10 oz Silver Coin features the right-profile portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This portrait is the fifth-generation portrait of Her Majesty to appear on coinage since she took the throne. Created in 2015 by Jody Clark, this design captures Her Majesty at a youthful 89 years of age.
Reverse
The reverse design of the 2018 Proof British Queens Beast Black Bull 10 oz Silver Coin features the image of the Black Bull of Clarence, and the royal shield. The proud and strong bull is shown behind a quartered shield that features the fleur de lis of France in two quadrants, and three golden lions shown in the other two quadrants.
King Edward IV was the first English King from the House of York. He rose to the throne during the War of Roses. He briefly lost the throne back to Henry VI, who was a part of the House of Lancaster, but he ultimately took rule back and served out his reign until his death.
