The Queen’s Beasts are ten heraldic creatures that symbolise the royal ancestry of Elizabeth II. As the world watched the coronation of the young queen in 1953, the beasts stood guard as statues outside Westminster Abbey. To honour the longest-reigning monarch in British history, The Queen’s Beasts have been brought together on this square bullion bar that includes Mary Gillick’s coinage portrait of Elizabeth II at its centre.
How are bullion prices calculated?
The 'buy' and 'sell' prices shown on the website represent the market value of raw vaulted metal in an 'unallocated' form. This is the standard way prices are quoted throughout the bullion industry. In order for The Royal Mint to deliver beautifully crafted precious metals products to your address, or to our vault, a number of processes must take place, all of which incur a cost. These processes include transportation, refining, minting, quality checking and merchandising.
The price at which The Royal Mint is able to sell bullion products to consumers is therefore made up of the 'spot price' (the buy price) plus an additional premium. The premium accounts for the costs incurred in manufacturing a particular product and is usually either a percentage of the buy price or a fixed monetary amount. In short, manufactured bullion products always sell at a premium to enable retailers and manufacturers to cover their costs.
