The Yale of Beaufort uses the mythical Yale as the supporting heraldic beast. Often depicted as a goat or antelope, the Yale always has horns on its head and the tusks of a boar on its snout. The beast can be used with a great deal of imagination to either portray grace and elegance or strength and determination.

On the reverse of 2019 British Gold Queen’s Beast Yale of Beaufort Coins is a depiction of the Yale supporting the shield of Lady Margaret Beaufort. Lady Margaret was the only daughter and surviving heiress of John Beaufort, Duke of Somerset. More importantly, she was the mother of King Henry VII, founder of the Tudor dynasty. Her seal includes a shield with a crown and portcullis badge.

The portcullis badge establishes a connection across 530 years of British history from King Henry VII to Queen Elizabeth II. The portcullis was included in the badge of Henry VII. It is also part of the arms of the Westminster City Council, home to Westminster Abbey where Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953.

For the obverse of 2019 1/4 oz British Gold Yale of Beaufort Coins, the Royal Mint uses Jody Clark’s fifth-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is featured in right-profile relief wearing the Royal Diadem crown.
