Commissioned by Henry VIII following his union with Jane Seymour, the ten royal beasts that line Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace stand as a stony tribute to the Tudor dynasty and a reminder of its rich monarchical history. Representing the regal power, these imposing guardians have provided the inspiration for this bullion collection dedicated to the Royal Tudor Beasts.
The ninth release in the collection, the Royal Dragon design features one of the oldest and most recognisable symbols in British heraldry. David Lawrence’s striking reverse design is set against a background that reflects the grandeur of the Tudor period and includes a security enhancing surface animation. Struck in platinum to Bullion standard, this coin is also available in fine gold and silver.
