2020 10oz Yale Of Beaufort Silver Coin Queen's Beasts
This beautiful and large 10oz Silver coin is part of a series of ten coins that feature the "Queen's Beasts". The coin is fine Silver and weighs ten ounces (311.03 grams). Like our 1oz and 2oz coins, the 10oz Unicorn coin comes in a protective plastic coin capsule, to protect the coin's condition. This coin has a face value of £10 and just like other British currency, this coin will be **exempt of any Capital Gains Tax** when you are ready to sell. The Queen's Beasts are ten statues which stood guard for the Queen's Coronation, sculpted by James Woodford RA in 1953. The Queen's Beasts are still standing, but are currently housed at the Canadian Museum of History in Quebec, Canada. Stone replicas of the statues can be found at Kew Gardens. This 2020 coin features the Yale Of Beaufort. A 'Yale' is a mythical beast found in European mythology and the imagery was used by the Beaufort family during the fifteenth century. The black-coloured Yale (aka Centicore) has long and flexible horns, which can be moved independently of each other. It is the size of a horse with an elephant's tail. The Yale symbolises a proud defence.
