2025 King Charles III Tudor Beasts 'Queen's Panther' 1oz 999.9 Gold Proof Coin

The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection

The Tudor Dragon is the seventh coin in the Royal Tudor Beast series from the Royal Mint . Launched October 2021 the series when complete will depict all 10 Tudor Beasts of Henry VIII which stand on guard at the entrance to the famous Kings favourite Palace Hampton Court.

Holding a shield bearing the combined coats of arms, also known as impaled arms, of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour, the Queen’s Panther flanks the Moat Bridge of Hampton Court Palace eyeing any passer-by with the sharp gaze of a cunning predator. The shield it bears represents the union of Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour. The dexter, or the left side of the shield, splits Henry VIII’s arms into four – an amalgamation of those belonging to his ancestors before him – kings and queens, lords and ladies – and thus establishing his rightful position on the English throne. The sinister, or the right side of the shield, shows Jane Seymour’s Coat of Arms, which portrays her descent from five different families who bore Coats of Arms.

2024 King Charles III Tudor Beasts 'The Seymour Unicorn' 1oz 999.9 Gold Proof Coin

The Seymour Unicorn is the fifth coin in the Royal Tudor Beast series from the Royal Mint . Launched October 2021 the series when complete will depict all 10 Tudor Beasts of Henry VIII which stand on guard at the entrance to the famous Kings favourite Palace Hampton Court.

Before being chosen by Henry VIII to flank the Moat Bridge of Hampton Court Palace, the unicorn was rarely used as a royal heraldic beast. The Tudor monarch’s decision to include it may lie in its symbolism, as the unicorn represents purity and fertility, and the king desperately needed the ‘gods of fertility’ to bless his third wife with a son who could perpetuate the dynasty. The unicorn is a mythical creature that appears in the Bible and was recognised by the ancient Greeks. It has an interesting biological composition, possessing the body of a horse with more often than not the cloven hooves and beard of a goat, a lion’s tail, and a slender, spiral horn on its forehead.
