The White Lion of Mortimer comes from Anne de Mortimer, heiress of the Mortimers and the grandmother of King Edward IV. Edward IV was the first monarch from the House of York.

On the reverse of 2020 1 oz Gold British Queen’s Beast White Lion Coins is the image of the House of York’s second heraldic beast. The White Lion supported the Royal Arms during the reign of Edward IV and was separated from the Lion of England. The former is depicted in a seated position with its tail between its legs and no crown, while the Lion of England is in the rampant pose with a crown.
