The Queen's Beasts is a series of ten heraldic sculptures created by sculptor James Woodford to commemorate the Queen's coronation in 1953. Their stylized form for the coin series was created by the talented engraver Jody Clark.
The Yale is a mythical beast that is described as being similar to an antelope or goat, the size of a hippopotamus, with the tail of an elephant and the jaws of a boar. The Yale of Beaufort has white and gold coloration and curled horns. The Yale as a heraldic badge was inherited by Henry VII from his mother, Lady Margaret of Beaufort. She played a central role in the War of the Roses and her position as head of the Tudor dynasty's matriarchy gave the animal prestige and symbolic meaning - elegance, determination and strength.
The obverse shows a traditional portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by the same artist who designed the reverse, with the inscription 'ELIZABETH II. D.G.REG.F.D." and the denomination "10 POUNDS".
