2018 Great Britain 1-oz Gold Queen's Beasts Black Bull Proof

Don’t Sidestep This Stunning Piece!

Queen Elizabeth II was crowned Queen of England in 1952 at the age of 25. Since then, she has become a fixture on the world scene, an institution unto herself through extremely turbulent times. At that coronation, ten fantastical creatures guarded Westminster Abbey, where the ceremony took place. Last year, the Royal Mint started a series of coins that honors each of these creatures. The Lion of England and the Unicorn of Scotland got things started off in 2017, while the Red Dragon of Wales was the first issue of 2018. Now, this one ounce Gold 2018 Great Britain Queen’s Beasts Bull Proof continues the tradition of excellence with a stunning design that will be prized by collectors for decades to come.

• THE LATEST IN THE "QUEEN’S BEASTS" SERIES -- This 2018 one ounce Gold Great Britain Bull Proof is the fourth issue in the Queen’s Beasts Series, which honors the creatures that guarded Westminster Abbey at Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation.

• EXQUISITE PROOF IN STUNNING GOLD – Each 2018 Black Bull of Clarence Proof was struck from one ounce of 99.99% pure gold at the Royal Mint. The coin has a sharp proof finish that makes the regal design shine!

• BRITISH LEGAL TENDER -- Each 2018 Gold Bull Proof is £100 pounds legal tender in Great Britain, as noted along the rim of the obverse, which bears Jody Clark’s portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.

Few modern coins offer quite the look into history that this one does. The Black Bull of Clarence, the creature that is featured, appeared on the Yorkist Army’s shields when they defeated the House of Lancaster in 1461. That victory led to the coronation of Edward IV, the first Yorkist English king. The bull stands powerfully on this coin, balancing a shield that features the Royal Arms, which consists of two sections with the lions of England and two sections with French fleurs-de-lis.
