About this coin
The 2017 “Red Dragon of Wales” – a striking emblem of courage and national pride, immortalised in one ounce of 999.9 fine gold. The Red Dragon, defender of the realm, represents the proud heritage of Wales within the Queen’s Beasts collection. Minted by The Royal Mint, this majestic coin unites ancient legend with modern minting excellence — a treasured piece for collectors and investors alike.
About The Queen’s Beasts
The Queen’s Beasts series celebrates the ten heraldic beasts that stood guard at Westminster Abbey for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Each beast represents part of the Queen’s ancestry, from the Lion of England and the Red Dragon of Wales to the Unicorn of Scotland and the White Greyhound of Richmond.
The Royal Mint released one beast at a time from 2016, finishing with a completer coin that brings all ten together. Struck in 999.9 fine gold and issued as UK legal tender, the coins are free of Capital Gains Tax for UK residents. The series is one of the most popular modern collections among investors and collectors alike.
