€75.00 includes 22% VAT
Celebrating the heraldry and history of the Tudor period with a contemporary design, Royal Tudor Beasts is a new collection from the Royal Mint. Heraldic beasts are part of the history of the monarchy, a tradition of lineage and strength on the battlefield that goes back centuries. Inspired by this long tradition, the royal beasts stand guard over the moat at Hampton Court Palace, representing Henry VIII and the mighty Tudor dynasty.
The fourth coin in this series is dedicated to the Bull of Clarence.
A symbol of power and might, the Bull of Clarence is associated with the rise of the House of York in the fifteenth century. The bull first appeared on the Royal Arms in the 1560s during the reign of Elizabeth I.
Obverse: Image of the Bull of Clarence holding a heraldic shield in a defensive posture.
Reverse: The first portrait of His Majesty the King personally approved by the monarch.
