All 2017 1 oz British Gold Queens Beast Griffin Coins in this listing have earned Mint State 69 certification from the NGC. Coins in this condition show full, original mint luster, but also possess minor flaws. There are a maximum of two minor detracting flaws on these coins, which are limited to miniscule contact marks or hairlines outside the primary focal areas of the design field.
The obverse of all British Gold Queens Beast Griffin Coins features the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majestys effigy appears on the obverse of all British coinage, and this latest fifth-generation depiction comes from Jody Clark and was released for British currency starting in late 2015.
On the reverse of all 2017 1 oz British Gold Queens Beast Griffin Coins is the image of the griffin created by Clark. It depicts the Griffin standing with its front legs and talons grasping the seal of Edward III. The griffin was very closely associated with Edward III, who ruled for more than 50 years and used the griffin on his private seal.
The Queens Beast coins are a product of the Royal Mint. Founded in the 8th century in London, the Royal Mint has evolved over time from a collection of provincial mints to one, sovereign minting organization.
