When Henry VIII married Jane Seymour in 1536, he had ten great statues carved from stone to line the gateway bridge that formed the entrance to Hampton Court Palace. The statues were of heraldic beasts, each holding a shield. Together, they showcased the historic royal lineage of the king, the second of the new Tudor dynasty, and celebrated his new queen, Jane Seymour.
And now, each one will feature on a stunning 2oz silver bullion coin. Presenting… The Royal Tudor Beasts Silver Bullion Collection, awe-inspiring masterpieces magnificently crafted by the Royal Mint. The complete collection will have an impressive weight of more than one and a half troy pounds of pure silver.
With this stunning collection, you can appreciate the glory of the wondrous beasts from your own home. This includes:
