At Queen Elizabeth II’s 1953 coronation, ten statues called The Queen’s Beasts stood guard at the entrance to Westminster Abbey. Each creature represented a strand of the young woman’s ancient royal heritage that passed to her on that historic day. In 2016, the Royal Mint reincarnated the ten royal guardians who stood guard that day in a beautiful new coin series called The Queen’s Beasts. Each new release explores one of these ten fantastical protectors and the centuries-old story they have to tell.

The seventh release in the Queen’s Beasts 10-coin series commemorates the regal Yale of Beaufort. The Yale was a mythical, antelope-like creature that was white with gold spots.

The Yale passed to the Queen through Henry VII, who inherited it from his mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort. Each coin is intricately struck in 1 oz .9999 fine gold and bears a face value of 100 pounds backed by the British government.

About The Royal Mint

Each 2019 British 1 oz Gold Yale coin was produced at The Royal Mint, the world’s oldest and most renowned mint. The Royal Mint, whose roots extend over 1,100 years, holds a long and distinguished tradition of craftsmanship, history, and artistry. Today, the Mint remains the world’s leading manufacturer of currency, coinage, bullion, and medals.

This new quarter ounce gold coin is the fourth release in a brand new series of ten issues. Each of the ten coins in this new series will feature a heraldic animal of the British Royal Family. In addition to this quarter ounce gold coin, the UK Royal Mint also produces a one oz gold coin and a two ounce silver coin for each of the ten animals in the series.

Here are some highlights of this coin:

• Contains one quarter (1/4) troy ounce of .9999 fine gold.
• Minted at the Royal Mint in Wales.
• £25 legal tender face value, backed by the government of the United Kingdom.
• Obverse design features a new portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, updated for 2018.
• Reverse design features the unicorn, one of England's most famous heraldic creatures.
• Fourth of ten coins in a new series.

In 1536, the infamous King Henry VIII commissioned the carving of ten stone sculptures in honor of his marriage to Jane Seymour (they were engaged the day after the execution of his previous wife, Anne Boleyn). Each of the ten animals depicted in the sculptures represent the heraldry of different branch of Henry and Jane's respective ancestries. These sculptures - the "King's Beasts" - stand to this day on a moat bridge at Henry VIII's primary English residence, Hampton Court Palace.

In advance of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953, some four hundred years later, a similar set of sculptures were commissioned. These sculptures also depicted the different mythical creatures representing the various branches of Elizabeth's family in the heraldic system. The sculptures themselves were plaster, not stone, and are now on display indoors at a museum in Canada. Stone replicas are on display in Kew Gardens, London.

This new series of coins from the Royal Mint honors these ten mythical creatures: the Queen's Beasts. In addition to a two ounce silver coin, a 1/4 oz gold coin and a one ounce gold coin will also be produced for each of the ten animals in the series. This coin, featuring the English Unicorn, is the fourth release.

The Royal Mint is one of the oldest and most well-respected national mints in the world. The purity and quality of these coins make them an excellent investment choice; in addition, because these coins are part of a unique series with a limited production run, they have the potential to acquire significant collectible (or, "numismatic") value, as well.

To avoid the use of British colonial currency in these port cities, British Trade Dollars were issued that often featured Britannia and included an oriental border design.

Another Spectacular Year of a Collector Favorite!

Out of the many things we’ve learned in millennia of human experience, one thing is obvious – gold endures. Whether it’s used in commerce or kept away in vaults, the value and craftsmanship of gold coinage lives from generation to generation. This timeless endurance is why, after South Africa’s Gold Krugerrand was introduced in 1967 and China’s Gold Panda made its debut in 1982, it was absolutely inevitable that the United States would establish its own bullion coin for the ages.

Authorized by Congress and signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1986, the Gold Eagle Program would quickly establish itself as a global standard for bullion that is artistically rich, perfectly collectible and thoroughly American. Celebrating its 33rd anniversary in 2019, the Ten Dollar Quarter-Ounce Gold Eagle has returned with its beloved, time-honored design!

• THE ULTIMATE SAINT-GAUDENS CREATION . . .—These Tenth-Ounce Gold Eagles exhibit a stunning design of Lady Liberty walking forward with focus and purpose, torch in one hand and olive branch in the other. Originally introduced on the famous 1907 $20 Double Eagle and born from collaboration between Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Theodore Roosevelt, this design reveals beautifully intricate details (like the U.S. Capitol building in the distance) with each viewing.

• . . . PAIRED WITH A PATRIOTIC FAMILY! – Featuring a male bald eagle carrying an olive branch to his family, sculptor Miley Busiek's design for the reverse continues to serve as a perfect modern companion to Saint-Gaudens’ vision.

• EXPERTLY STRUCK IN HIGHLY PURE GOLD – The craftspeople of the U.S. Mint are known around the world for their skill and attention to detail. It's this talent that transforms each quarter-ounce planchet of 91.67% pure gold into a breathtaking work of numismatic art.

• U.S. LEGAL TENDER – Minted in gold mined in the United States with weight and content guaranteed by the U.S. government, each 2019 Quarter-Ounce Gold Eagle bullion coin is ten dollars U.S. legal tender, as seen on the coin’s reverse.

• GRADED IN BU CONDITION – Yorter-Ounce Gold Eagle will arrive to you in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, exactly as it left the U.S. Mint.

The American Gold Buffalo Coin - A Feast for the Eyes

Gold bullion has always been a popular investment choice due to its intrinsic value and versatility. Among the numerous options available in the market today, the American Gold Buffalo Coin stands out as one of the most beautiful and unique coins produced by the United States Mint. In this blog post, we will explore the history and features of this coin.

The American Gold Buffalo Coin was first introduced by the US Mint in 2006, and it has been an annual release ever since. The coin's design is based on the popular Buffalo Nickel that was in circulation from 1913 to 1938. James Earle Fraser, the same designer of the Buffalo Nickel, created the design for the American Gold Buffalo Coin, giving it a sense of nostalgia and history.

The coin's obverse design features the profile of a stoic indigenous figure. Fraser created this image by merging the physical features of three indigenous American figures from the early 20th century, making it the first major American coin to feature an indigenous figure. The reverse of the coin features the image of an American bison in its natural habitat, a design also created by Fraser. The bison design has come to symbolize strength and resilience to many people, making the coin even more meaningful to collectors and investors alike.

One of the most notable features of the American Gold Buffalo Coin is its purity. The coin contains 1 troy ounce of .9999 pure gold, making it one of the purest gold coins ever produced by the US Mint. The coin has a face value of $50 (USD), which is relatively low compared to its actual market value based on its gold content.

The American Gold Buffalo Coin is also easy to obtain and store. It arrives in protective flips or plastic tubes of 20 coins that make it easy to store and handle. It's also a popular choice for IRA investments and can add value to any gold investment portfolio.

In sum, the American Gold Buffalo Coin is not only a beautiful addition to any collection or investment portfolio, it's also a symbol of American history and heritage. Its unique design and high level of purity make it an excellent investment choice for those interested in gold bullion. With its accessibility and relative affordability, it's no surprise the American Gold Buffalo Coin has gained such popularity over the years.
