Queen’s Beast Two Ounce Silver White Horse
Description Queen’s Beast Two Ounce Silver White Horse of Hanover were made in 2020 and was the ninth of ten designs in the Royal Mints: Queen’s Beast bullion range. This range is in recognition of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, when she surpassed Queen Victoria as the longest reigning Monarch on the 9th September 2015. These will feature the ten heraldic beasts that stood guard at Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation. The original casts are now held in the Canadian Museum of History in Quebec. The detailed shield is split into four and references Britain, France Ireland and Hanover. In 1714 the throne was passed to George of Hanover (George I). He brought with him the representations of the region, this included the white horse. The White Horse is displayed as standing up, this is so it can be differentiated from the galloping German horse of Hanover.
