Reverse description The reverse presents a magnificent completer design depicting all ten of the Queen's Beasts arranged radially around a central medallion, framed by an interlaced Gothic tracery of arched compartments. The ten heraldic creatures — the Lion of England, the Unicorn of Scotland, the Red Dragon of Wales, the Black Bull of Clarence, the Falcon of the Plantagenets, the Yale of Beaufort, the White Lion of Mortimer, the White Horse of Hanover, the Griffin of Edward III, and the White Greyhound of Richmond — are each finely sculpted in high relief within their respective panels. At the centre, a smaller relief effigy of Queen Elizabeth II faces right, encircled by a guilloche-patterned border. The legend THE QUEEN'S BEASTS arcs above the central medallion, with the date 2021 below and the engraver's initials JC within the central field.
