What is the Tudor Beasts Series?

The Tudor Beasts Series follows the massive success of the Queen’s Beasts Series, which celebrated 10 heraldic creatures representing over 800 years of the British monarchy. This new series focuses specifically on the House of Tudor, highlighting the royal beasts used as symbols of power and lineage during the reign of King Henry VIII and his successors.


A Glimpse Into Tudor History

The House of Tudor was founded in 1485 following the historic victory of Henry VII at the Battle of Bosworth, where he defeated King Richard III of the House of York, ending the Wars of the Roses. To solidify his claim, Henry VII married Elizabeth of York, unifying the warring houses and establishing a powerful royal dynasty that ruled until 1603.

The Tudor Beasts, inspired by this powerful legacy, were chosen to symbolize royal authority and are masterfully represented in this bullion series.
