Description
The 2019 Yale of Beaufort 1oz gold coin is part of the Royal Mint’s prestigious Queen’s Beasts series. This series, which began in 2016, celebrates the heraldic animals that have stood guard at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. The Yale of Beaufort was the seventh design released in the series and is a fascinating coin due to its detailed design and historical symbolism. The Yale of Beaufort is a unique and lesser-known creature in British heraldry. It is most famously associated with the Beaufort family, which has historical ties to the English nobility. This coin is made up of .999 fine gold and weighs 1 troy oz (31.1g). This coin has a face value of £100 and is exempt from capital gains tax.
