Like the Queens Beasts Series before it, the Tudor Beasts Series draws inspiration from the history of the monarchy in England. While the Queens Beasts Series was focused on the heraldic beasts passed down over the centuries to Queen Elizabeth II, as present at her coronation in 1953, the Tudor Beasts has a different focus.
The heraldic beasts featured in the Tudor Beasts Series reflect the 10 creatures that line Moat Bridge crossing into Hampton Court Palace. Though the beasts represent the broader reign of the Tudors, all 10 featured on Moat Bridge were commissioned by King Henry VIII.
King Charles III is featured on the obverse of 2024 5 oz Proof Silver Tudor Beasts The Tudor Dragon Coins. His Majesty is shown here in left-profile relief in a bust from Martin Jennings. This portrait depicts the king without a crown on his head.
For the reverse side of 2024 Proof British Silver Tudor Beasts The Tudor Dragon Coins, the mint features a depiction of the Tudor Dragon, a beast inspired by the Red Dragon of Wales. The Tudors, under King Henry VII, leaned into their Welsh heritage as part of Henry VII’s efforts to cement his legitimacy as the King of England following the Wars of the Roses.
These 2024 5 oz Proof British Silver Tudor Beasts The Tudor Dragon Coins are available in capsules with each coin packaged in a black presentation case. The case comes with a Royal Mint shipper and a Certificate of Authenticity.
