Step into a world where history and craftsmanship converge with The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection, a stunning tribute to the heraldic symbols that defined the power and prestige of the Tudor dynasty. At the heart of this series lies the Greyhound of Richmond, a majestic emblem inherited by Henry VIII to symbolize his unbroken lineage and royal authority.
This set includes one per each of the followings. These two coins come with a presentation box that showcases each coin beautifully, ensuring they are protected and displayed elegantly.
A Masterpiece of Symbolism
Crafted in collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces, each coin immortalizes the artistry of the Tudor era. The Greyhound of Richmond, reimagined by acclaimed artist David Lawrence, captures the beast’s poised vigilance—its head turned sharply, ears alert, and a jousting shield emblazoned with England’s iconic three lions. This design echoes the grandeur of Hampton Court Palace, where stone guardians still stand as testaments to Tudor ambition.
Unrivaled Craftsmanship
Available in lustrous gold and silver Proof editions, as well as a Brilliant Uncirculated finish, the collection offers something for every admirer of history and numismatic artistry. The silver Proof edition features a distinctive edge inscription honoring Hampton Court Palace, while a two-coin set showcases a striking frosted reverse finish, adding depth and texture to the design.
A Connection to the Past
The Greyhound of Richmond traces its roots to Edmund Tudor, Henry VIII’s grandfather, whose adoption of the white greyhound as a royal supporter cemented its place in heraldry. This coin series invites you to own a piece of that legacy—a tangible link to the opulence and intrigue of Tudor England.
A Celebration of Heritage
With meticulous attention to detail and limited-edition presentations, The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection is more than a coin series—it is a celebration of storytelling through art. Perfect for collectors and history enthusiasts alike, these coins honor the enduring symbols that shaped a dynasty and continue to captivate imaginations centuries later.
