2021 Queen’s Beasts Greyhound of Richmond 1oz Gold Coin | MS66–MS70
The 2021 Greyhound of Richmond 1oz Gold Coin is available professionally graded by NGC or PCGS between MS66 and MS70. Struck by The Royal Mint in .9999 fine gold, it combines investment-grade bullion with independent authentication and grading.
The Queen’s Beasts series is inspired by the ten heraldic statues that stood guard at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, each representing a strand of royal ancestry.
The Greyhound of Richmond is a heraldic supporter closely associated with the House of Tudor, symbolising loyalty, courage, and noble lineage. It was used by Henry VII and represents the strength of the Tudor claim to the throne.
The reverse design by Jody Clark depicts the Greyhound of Richmond holding a shield bearing Tudor heraldry. The obverse features the fifth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
Certified High-Grade Examples (MS66–MS70)
Each coin is independently graded and sealed by NGC or PCGS, the two leading global grading authorities. All coins fall within the upper mint state range (MS66–MS70), representing high-quality examples with strong strike detail and visual appeal.
Higher grades within this range, particularly MS69 and MS70, are considered premium-quality coins, with MS70 representing a flawless example under magnification.
Grade Allocation
Each coin is selected from certified stock graded between MS66 and MS70 by leading grading providers.
This format allows access to high-grade examples within the upper mint state range, with coins graded MS69 and MS70 typically trading at a premium when sold individually.
All coins supplied fall within the stated MS66–MS70 range.
