2019 Falcon Of The Plantagenets Quarter Ounce Gold Proof Queen's Beasts Coin
Celebrate historic British heraldry with the 2019 Falcon of the Plantagenets 1/4oz gold proof coin, the fifth release in The Royal Mint's Queen's Beasts series. The falcon, long associated with King Edward IV, is shown with wings outstretched, claws gripping a shield that bears his distinctive falcon-and-fetterlock badge. This emblem not only underlined Edward's royal authority but also evoked the elite medieval sport of falconry. Jody Clark's reverse captures the bird in dramatic detail, echoing the original stone beasts that guarded Westminster Abbey during Queen Elizabeth II's coronation. Struck in 7.80 grams of 999.9 fine gold to the Mint's flawless proof standard, this £25 quarter-ounce coin was issued in 2019 with a worldwide limit of just 1,250 coins. Each example is presented pre-owned in its official Royal Mint display case with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
