2018 Queen's Beasts Black Bull Of Clarence Quarter Ounce Gold Bullion Coin
Gold 1/4oz bullion coin featuring the Black Bull of Clarence. This coin comes from The Royal Mint’s popular Queen’s Beasts series, inspired by the heraldic creatures that populate the coats of arms of Her Majesty’s royal and noble ancestors. A runaway success for The Royal Mint, their beastly coin series included ten designs, plus a ‘completer’, released between 2016 and 2021. The back bull that stars on the reverse of this coin was associated with the House of York, one of the two royal houses who vied for the throne during the Wars of the Roses. The bull, a symbol of power and strength, was used by the last York kings, Edward IV and Richard III, to signify their royal descent through the bull-like Lionel of Antwerp, 1st Duke of Clarence. The royal arms as they looked during the Wars of the Roses accompany the raging Queen's Beast on this coin. This quarter ounce gold coin has the textured background typical of bullion coins in this range. It’s composed of 7.81 grams of 999.9 gold and has a face value of £25 / Twenty Five Pounds.
