2018 10oz Griffin of Edward III Silver Coin Queen's Beasts

Pre-owned but in excellent condition.

This beautiful 2018 Griffin of Edward III 10oz silver coin is the second of a series of ten that will feature the "Queen's Beasts". 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.

The second coin features the Griffin. The coin is struck in fine silver, and weighs ten ounces (311.03 grams). Like our 1oz and 2oz coins, the 10oz Griffin 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.

Collectors Note: The Queen's Beast series of coins will be issued by the Royal Mint on a one-by-one basis until 2020. Customers collecting this range will not have access to these earlier coins in 2020 as they are limited edition, so you will need to purchase them individually as they become available (roughly every six months)..
