This coin type is the ninth from a series of ten coin designs known as the Queen’s Beasts.

The Queen’s Beasts are British coins issued by the Royal Mint in platinum, gold, and silver since 2016. Each of the coins in the series features a stylized version of one of the heraldic Queen’s Beasts statues present at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II representing her royal line of ancestry. It was announced that engraver Jody Clark will design the entire series; he is best known for also designing the Queen’s Fifth definitive portrait, which is on the obverse of the coins.

The Queen’s Beasts heraldic statues representing the genealogy of Queen Elizabeth II stood in front of the temporary western annexe to Westminster Abbey for the Queen’s coronation in 1953. Each of The Queen’s Beasts consists of an heraldic beast supporting a shield bearing a badge or arms of a family associated with the ancestry of Queen Elizabeth II. They were commissioned by the British Ministry of Works from sculptor James Woodford. The statues were uncoloured except for their shields at the coronation. They are now on display in the Canadian Museum of History. There are other statues of the Queen’s Beasts, sometimes referred to as the King’s Beasts, at Hampton Court Palace and Kew Gardens in London, and on the roof of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle. 

The reverse features a dynamic depiction of the White Greyhound of Richmond. It holds a shield displaying a Tudor double rose (one rose within another), crowned with St Edward’s Crown.

Around below, the inscription WHITE GREYHOUND OF RICHMOND. Around above, interrupted by the greyhound’s head, the date · 2021 ·.

The artist’s initials JC (for Jody Clark) are in the lower right field next to the shield.
