The Royal Tudor Beasts The Tudor Dragon 2024 UK 1oz Silver Proof Coin
The Royal MintThe Coin Company is proud to present The Royal Tudor Beasts The Tudor Dragon 2024 UK 1oz Silver Proof Coin by The Royal Mint.
Ten mighty beasts stand guard on the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace, overlooking all who enter. Commissioned by Henry VIII, these heraldic creatures displayed the power and influence of the House of Tudor, and The Royal Mint has created The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection to pay homage to these symbols of regal strength.
The next beast in the collection is the Tudor Dragon, which was adopted by the Tudor family to celebrate their royal Welsh heritage. The Tudor Dragon is the last King’s Beast that visitors pass along the Moat Bridge as they enter Hampton Court Palace.
Collection artist David Lawrence has created a design featuring the Tudor Dragon holding a shield emblazoned with the Beaufort Portcullis badge. This coin is available in a range of gold Proof and silver Proof editions as well as a Brilliant Uncirculated edition.
