The Black Bull of Clarence is synonymous with power and strength and is thought to have featured on the shields of the Yorkist army that defeated the House of Lancaster in 1461, making Edward IV the first Yorkist king of England. The bull started to appear on coins and the Royal Arms during the 1560s when Elizabeth I ordered the recoinage of all silver coins.
The Queen’s Beasts appeared together for the first time in 1953 at Her Majesty The Queen’s coronation and now, during its 65th anniversary, you too can own a piece of British royal history.
