The Fifth Coin in the Popular Queen's Beast Series from the Britain's Royal Mint has just Been Released
5:56 AM
Introducing the Black Bull of Clarence -- the latest design to be minted in the Royal Mint's 2 ounce pure silver coin.
When Queen Elizabeth II ascended to the throne of England in 1953 in Westminister Abbey, at the entrance stood 10 statues of the various Queen's Beasts standing guard. The Royal Mint is commemorating these 10 heraldic beasts in stunning silver coins. The Black Bull of Scotland is the fifth issue in a series planned for 10 coins total.
The Black Bull is a symbol of bravery and generosity.
These silver coins are twice the size of other popular bullion coins such as the silver American Eagle or Canadian Maple Leaf. If that isn't enough to make them stand out, the beautiful image of the Black Bull along with a shield emblazoned with the coat of arms representing the Duke of Clarence on the coin's reverse certainly will. Each is minted with .9999 pure silver, and denominated with £5 (British pounds). The coins ship from the mint in boxes of 200 coins -- 20 tubes filled with 10 coins each, though investors may buy in any quantity, with no minimum purchase.
The coin's obverse carries the iconic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The weight and purity of this sovereign coin is backed by the British government.
