Silver Seymour Unicorn 1 oz PF - Royal Tudor Beasts 2024

Information about Silver Seymour Unicorn 1 oz PF - Royal Tudor Beasts 2024

With the “Royal Tudor Beasts” coin series, the Royal Mint commemorates the ten heraldic animals that line the moat bridge of Hampton Court Palace. The animals were created at the behest of Henry VIII and symbolized the legitimacy of the king's reign by representing his royal lineage. The “Seymour Unicorn” is the 5th edition of the Royal Tudor Beasts series to be released this year. The wild and untamed unicorn was considered to be the strongest of all creatures, so placing a unicorn in stone in front of the palace was a clear sign of royal dominance. Many believed that the unicorn also stood for purity and fertility.

All associated motifs in the series are: The Seymour Panther, The Lion of England, The Yale of Beaufort, The Bull of Clarence, The Tudor Dragon, The Greyhound of Richmond, The Royal Dragon, The Seymour Unicorn, The Queen's Panther and The Queen's Lion. Due to the success of the “The Queen's Beasts” series, we are delighted to be able to offer you the promising “Royal Tudor Beasts” series at philoro.

The design of the silver coin

On the design side, the artist David Lawrence has depicted the unicorn with a shield. The motif is framed by the lettering “SEYMOUR UNICORN” and the year of issue “2024”. The value side of the coin shows the portrait of King Charles III. Around the portrait is the inscription “CHARLES III D G REX F D”, meaning CHARLES III DEI GRATIA REX FIDEI DEFENSOR (Charles the Third, by the grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith). There is also the face value “2 POUNDS” and the initials “MJ” of British sculptor Martin Jennings, whose portrait of King Charles adorns the value side.
