The Black Bull of Clarence is closely linked with Edward IV who became the first Yorkist King of England in 1461 after a battle in which his army bore the bull on their shields. Historians believe that the powerful bull first appeared on the Royal Arms and on coins in the 1560s when Elizabeth I ordered the recoinage of all silver coins.
