Description
Introducing the first in the series of The Royal Tudor Beasts bullion coins, the 2022 1oz Lion of England Gold Coin truly is king. The Royal Tudor Beasts collection by the Royal Mint honours the heraldic symbols of the Tudor dynasty. Ten Royal Beasts were sculpted in stone to pay homage to the union and lineage of King Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour.
The lion has been used on the shield of England for as long as one has existed, symbolising pride and courage. The striking new reverse design on the 1oz Lion of England Gold Coin features the fearsome beast snarling with sharp claws and boasting an impressive mane adorned with a royal crown. He can still be found immortalised in stone guarding the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace, where he has for centuries represented Henry VIII and Jane Seymour by holding a shield bearing their impaled – or combined – arms, proudly illustrating the strength of the couple’s union.
The 2022 1oz Gold Royal Tudor Beasts Lion of England Coin is struck in 999.9 fine gold to bullion standard and is exempt from Capital Gains Tax.
