Capturing the Passion of the Nation in Precious Metal

As a young woman crowned at the age of 25, Her Majesty The Queen embraced the traditions and experience of her ancestors. The entrance to her coronation at Westminster Abbey was lined with ten impressive reminders of the heritage Her Majesty inherited that day. The Queen’s Beasts have now been revisited for this collection from The Royal Mint, which explores the stories that lie behind these legendary creatures. The third coin in the collection celebrates the Red Dragon of Wales.  

This edition of the coin has been struck in one ounce of 999 fine silver and finished to Proof standard. Just 6,000 coins are available in this Limited Edition Presentation, and each comes in a Royal Mint case with a booklet that explores the story of the dragon in heraldry and the inspiration behind the design.
