The Royal Heraldic Lion has guarded the arms of English monarchs since Richard I adopted three golden lions passant on his shield in the twelfth century. Standing rampant or passant guardant, this magnificent beast has prowled the Royal Arms for over 800 years — a symbol of courage, strength, and sovereign authority that adorns everything from the gates of Buckingham Palace to the jerseys of England's football team. No creature is more synonymous with the British Crown.
This gold-plated commemorative captures the Royal Heraldic Lion in bold, commanding relief. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 28.5mm piece is plated in 24 carat gold and weighs 9.5 grams — a proud golden tribute to the enduring symbol of royal power.
Let this noble beast stand guard in your Royal Heritage collection — claim yours before it prowls out of reach.
