2017 Lion of England Queen’s Beasts 10 Oz Silver Proof

Description

As Her Majesty The Queen arrived at Westminster Abbey on 2 June 1953, ten fantastical figures stood guard. The heraldic beasts lined the entrance as the coronation began, each statue a symbol of royal ancestry with its own fascinating story to tell. Now, more than 60 years later, The Queen’s Beasts have inspired a new coin collection that begins with the Lion of England.
