2026 UK Tudor Beasts Queen’s Lion 1oz Gold Coin
A 1oz gold bullion coin struck in .9999 fine gold by The Royal Mint, featuring the Queen’s Lion as part of the Royal Tudor Beasts collection.
The Tudor Beasts series is inspired by the ten stone heraldic beasts that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace, symbolising the royal lineage of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour.
The Queen’s Lion is a heraldic supporter associated with the royal arms, symbolising strength, courage, and authority. It reflects the enduring legacy of royal heraldry within the Tudor dynasty.
The reverse design by David Lawrence depicts the Queen’s Lion holding a shield bearing elements of Tudor heraldry, set against a detailed chain mail surface animation background. The obverse features the official portrait of King Charles III.
