For the knights of the High Middle Ages in England, there was no creature more important and symbolic than the Barbary lion. Easily associated by these men with bravery, strength, and courage, the lion lives on today as one of the most important heraldic creatures in the Royal Coat of Arms for Britain and its Royal Family. The 2016 2 oz Silver British Queen’s Beast Lion Coin is available now on Silver.com in near-perfect condition.

Traditionally, the lion symbolizes a variety of traits and characteristics that mankind looks to emulate. Among them are bravery, nobility, strength, royal, stateliness, and valor. The lion is regarded as the king of beasts, which explains the close association with royal coat of arms from numerous nations.

For the people of Britain, the Barbary lion came into the coat of arms for the royal family during the reign of King Henry II. Throughout hundreds of years of British history, the lion remained in the official crest of the royal family and was often used as a nickname for the rulers of the Kingdom of England.

On the reverse of the 2016 2 oz Silver British Queen’s Beast Lion Coin is the Lion of England design, which incorporates the image of a lion standing behind the heraldic shield of the nation. This particular design is known as “lion rampant,” and features a lion standing on one or both hind legs, with its forepaws raised.

The obverse of the Silver British Queen’s Beast Lion coin depicts Queen Elizabeth II at 89 years of age, and is the most recent update to Her Majesty’s right-profile portrait on British coinage. Jody Clark of the Royal Mint designed both sides of the coin, and is the youngest man (at 33) to create a portrait of Her Majesty for British coins.

Each 2016 2 oz Silver British Queen’s Beast Lion Coin in this listing is a near-perfect specimen according to the NGC. Coins in this condition have full, original mint luster, but also include a maximum of two minor detracting flaws located outside the primary focal areas of the coin.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
