Graded PF 70 Ultra Cameo by NGC, this £100 gold coin is the final instalment in the seminal Queen’s Beasts Series from The Royal Mint. The collection was inspired the by the statues of real and mythological creatures that guarded Westminster Abbey during the coronation of Elizabeth II in 1953. The final release features all ten heraldic beasts around a central portrait of Her Majesty the Queen. This design, like the previous single-beast coins is the work of Royal Mint designer Jody Clark. He is also responsible for the royal portrait which appears on the obverse of this coin. Queen’s Beasts coins are available in a range of sizes, finishes and precious metals. This example is offered in 31.21 grams of 999.9 fine gold, finished to flawless proof standard. It measures 32.69 millimetres across from milled edge to milled edge and has a face value of one hundred Pounds. Just 650 of these 1oz gold Completer coins were issued in 2021 and this one has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation as PF 70 Ultra Cameo indicating a great strike with deeply mirrored surfaces and frosted fields.

The Royal Mint's Queen's Beasts Collection

New additions to The Queen's Beasts collection have been flying off the shelves since the first of these Royal Mint coins was released in 2016. The eleven-part series combines lifelike animals with graphic heraldic elements across an expansive range of editions, including some of the largest gold coins ever produced in the UK.

The collection was inspired by ten six-foot tall statues, created by sculptor James Woodford for the coronation of Her Majesty the Queen, back in 1953. Taking the form of the real and mythological beasts, used in the coats of arms of her ancestors, Woodford's sculptures celebrated Elizabeth II's noble lineage.

With ten beasts, each available in various sizes and presentations, plus a completer coin to cap off the series, The Queen's Beasts has proved an exciting challenge for coin collectors and fans of British history to complete.

You can read more about the series on our blog: The Queen's Beasts: Landmark Royal Mint Series Now Complete.

What Is The Queen's Beasts Completer Coin?

The eleventh and final release in The Queen's Beasts collection is referred to by The Royal Mint as the ‘Completer Coin'. This piece features all ten beasts featured in the series in all their glory, forming a ceremonial guard around a small portrait of Her Majesty in the centre. It's a remarkable end to a remarkable series, paying tribute to our Queen as she approaches her Platinum Jubilee year.

Both bullion and proof versions of the Completer were issued by The Royal Mint in 2021. We were lucky enough to retail one of four 2kg 24 carat gold Completers: coins with a face value of £2,000. At the same time The Royal Mint struck a single, show-stopping 10kg gold edition which was the heaviest gold coin ever produced in Britain and the subject of plenty of news stories which brought wider public attention to The Queen's Beasts series as it drew to a close.

Who Designed The Queen's Beasts Coins?

The artist behind the ten individual Queen's Beasts coins and the Completer is Jody Clark. He's known for creating the fifth definitive coin portrait of Her Majesty the Queen that has been used on British currency since 2015. This means that Clark's work appears on both sides of all coins in The Queen's Beasts series.

A member of The Royal Mint's in-house design team, Clark discussed the inspiration behind his beasts in an interview:

'I've always been interested in fantastic beasts; you can ask my mum! I think most children love fairy tales and stories about lions, dragons and unicorns; they've got a timeless appeal.'

Fantastical or not, Clark's creations are relaistic and highly detailed: clearly the result of studying living animals. Their finely wrought fur and scales stand in contrast to the graphic quality of their shields, depicting badges and arms of the Queen's illustrious ancestors. We give Clark 10/10 for translating the proud mien of those brightly coloured statues into designs suitable for collectible coinage.

What Are The 10 Queen's Beasts Coins?

Ten different individual heraldic creatures were featured in The Queen's Beasts series. Bullion coins were issued first and in a slightly different order to the later proof editions. Here's the full list of Royal Mint beasts:

Beast	Symbolism
Lion Of England	A symbol of courage and strength that became associated with English royalty in the Middle Ages.
Unicorn Of Scotland	The natural enemy of the lion, the unicorn joined its old rival on the arms of the United Kingdom in 1707.
Red Dragon Of Wales	Also known as the Y Draig Gogh, the red dragon has been associated with Wales since the 6th century.
Black Bull Of Clarence	A raging beast used by the Kings of the House of York during the Wars of the Roses.
Falcon Of The Plantagenets	Hunting with birds of prey was an elite sport in medieval times with the falcon suggesting nobility and prowess.
Yale Of Beaufort	The Tudors used the mythical yale in their heraldry to proclaim their royal descent through the House of Beaufort.
White Lion Of Mortimer	This lion is uncrowned, its tail tucked away - it's a symbol of loyalty, closely associated with Edward IV.
White Horse Of Hanover	The Sachsenross was coopted into the British heraldic stable by George I, our first Hanoverian monarch.
White Greyhound Of Richmond	Associated with the Earl of Richmond - Henry VII's father - the greyhound symbolises faithfulness and vigour.
Griffin Of Edward III	Part lion, part eagle, the griffin was said to guard treasure, making it a fitting subject for a coin.

Some of the beasts are real while others are drawn from legend. Each holds a shield of arms in its claws or paws, providing a further insight into the complex history of the British royal line.

Is The Queen's Beasts Completer A Good Investment?

The Queen's Beasts Completer is available in a range of metals, finishes and sizes, in line with the previous releases in this collection from The Royal Mint. Unlike the rest of the series, the proof editions were released first and included two large, special editions: a single 10kg gold coin and four 2kg pieces.

While many collectors will view the Completer as the final piece in a complete Queen's Beasts collection, the design stands alone, it's rich detail - appealing on both large and small issues - leading several commentators to identify it as their favourite Royal Mint release of 2021.

We're offering an extensive range of Queen's Beasts Completer coins in very limited numbers, including:

Steeped in more than 1,100 years of history, The Royal Mint supplies all of the United Kingdom's coinage as well as currency for nations around the world. Renown for craftsmanship and thoughtful design, The Royal Mint also produces commemorative coins, favoured by investors and collectors.

A Millennia of Minting

Founded in the reign of Alfred the Great, around the year 886, The Royal Mint was originally one of several mints which were centralised to London in 1279. For more than 800 years the Mint was based at the Tower of London before moving to Royal Mint Court where it remained until the 1960s.

The Royal Mint has always been on the forefront of economic, technical and artistic innovation. Its skilled craftsmen minted coins that would reach the far corners of the British Empire, establishing the image and reputation of Britain for all whose pockets they ended up in.

In 2010 The Royal Mint became a limited company owned by Her Majesty’s Treasury. In recent years the Mint has struck medals for the 2012 London Olympic Games and opened a visitor centre, The Royal Mint Experience, in Llantrisant, Wales: the current home of The Royal Mint.

Collecting and Investing

The Royal Mint's commemorative and bullion coins – often minted to mark important national events and anniversaries – are not intended for circulation. They might look like ordinary coins but they are generally worth much more, thanks to their scarcity, finish and composition.

Most commemorative coins produced by The Royal Mint are available in a range of striking standards including Gold Proof, Silver Proof, Brilliant Uncirculated and Bullion. Some are also available in collectors sets. Gold and Silver Proof coins are minted in small numbers, making them rare and desirable.

The Royal Mint's commemorative coins are both VAT-free and Capital Gains Tax (CGT) exempt, making them an attractive and valuable investment. Whether you are diversifying your investments or simply appreciate world-class design, commemorative coins from The Royal Mint are a great buy.

Easy to use website. Fast and easy checkout. And items dispatch next business day with tracking. Only thing is coins sometimes are not up to snuff and have marks or spots Etc. BCC does quality checks but can be improved.

Buon giorno. Avete un negozio online ben fornito e di facile utilizzo. L'imballaggio del prodotto è stato ottimo. Ho solo un reclamo da fare ! Ho provato a chiamare presso op vostro negozio più volte senza avere nessuna risposta , ho usato anche il vostro contatto watzap ma anche in questo caso non ho avuto risposta. Vi ho contattato a luglio e agosto per sapere se erano previste le spese doganali,in fine ho acquistato senza sapere ....

Very easy to use website I think you enter the website and there's the latest "live metal prices" with an "Enter Search Item" bar at the top of the page. I like the fact it has the search feature as the home page. When you search for the item(s) it quickly shows the results, along with images of the coins or coin sets. I like that, too. The only downside with these types of businesses, is that you can't get to see a close up image of the coin and/or coin set you are buying. I feel that, because this company buys coins from collectors, etc. that they will have several items that are the same, but in varying degrees of quality and condition, and then, when your buying a 2nd hand item, it's going to be a case of pot luck on what you're going to get. And so, if it was possible, I'd love for BCC to get images of each item that you're going to buy. This is so you know what you're getting before you buy it. That said, every item I've bought from BCC has been of a very nice quality. Two of the coins were of a staggering high quality and the two sets I bought were much better than the average coin sets from eBay. I would say that BCC are the best company in the UK when it comes to used and brand new coins and coin sets. Not only that, the speed at which they get your order processed and delivered to your door is very very fast. The packaging is also on point and highly professional. Also, and one of the most important things, I really trust the Britannia Coin Company. Their prices are very fair and their items are clean and in good condition. They also have a good standing within the coin community.
