2019 1 oz British Gold Queen’s Beast Falcon of the Plantagenets Coin NGC MS70

The Falcon of the Plantagenets is one of the many heraldic symbols handed down to Queen Elizabeth II through the centuries from previous British monarchs. The symbolism of the falcon comes from the Plantagenet King Edward III, one of Britain’s greatest Medieval-era monarchs. Today, his seal is available on the 2019 1 oz British Gold Queen’s Beast Falcon of the Plantagenets Coin from JM Bullion with a perfect certification.

King Edward III reigned over England for 50 years and enjoyed the second-longest reign during England’s Medieval period. His rule is remembered as a time of great military successes for the king and the restoration of the authority of the crown after his father’s disastrous and unorthodox reign as King of England.

The reverse of the 2019 1 oz Gold Falcon of the Plantagenets Coins includes the seal of King Edward III. His choice of the falcon for his shield reflected his love of hawking and falconry. It is depicted on the royal shield with a fetterlock in its talons. The use of an open fetterlock, as on this design, indicates one’s rightful claim to the throne of England.

Edward III’s white falcon and fetterlock proved popular beyond his years on the throne. When King Henry VII ended the reign of the Plantagenets with his victory in the Wars of the Roses, he often used the falcon as a symbol and it is said to have been a favorite of his granddaughter, Queen Elizabeth I.

On the obverse field of 2019 1 oz British Gold Falcon of the Plantagenets Coins is the image of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is England’s longest-reigning monarch and is featured here in right-profile relief in the latest fifth-generation effigy to appear on British coins.
