History of The Tudor Beasts series

The Tudor Beasts is a project by The Royal Mint inspired by the ten heraldic animal sculptures that adorn the bridge over the moat at Hampton Court Palace. Each animal represents a lineage connected to the Tudor dynasty, forming a cohesive collector cycle based on British heraldic symbolism.

Royal Dragon (Tudor Dragon) is one of the motifs of this series, using a dynamic composition characteristic of the Tudor beasts. The series is issued in several denominations and metals; the 1/4 oz gold version is a smaller, more accessible format for building a collection or adding physical gold to a portfolio.

Obverse — portrait of the monarch and face value

The obverse features the elements standard for The Royal Mint: the portrait of the reigning monarch, the issuing country, the face value of 25 British pounds and the year of issue 2026. The obverse identifies the coin as UK legal tender with guaranteed metal content.

Reverse — Royal Dragon motif

The reverse presents the Tudor Dragon (Royal Dragon) from The Tudor Beasts series, created by The Royal Mint design team. The composition draws on the heraldic sculpture at Hampton Court Palace, combining the recognisable historical motif with the clear layout typical of bullion coins.

What to look out for when buying

When buying, it is worth checking the year, the series motif and the condition of the surface and packaging. Gold at 999.9 fineness is relatively soft, so the original packaging or capsule limits the risk of scratches and minor damage to the detail.

For smaller denominations and themed issues, the market premium can be higher than for the most widely available 1 oz gold bullion coins, because the minting cost of a smaller coin and collector value also feed into the price. It is worth comparing the price with the current gold price to gauge the premium against the spot price.
