Description
The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection explores the stories behind the rich heraldry of the Tudor dynasty through coin design. Inspired by the statues that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace, the beasts represent the famous union of Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour.
Henry VIII inherited the heraldic greyhound from Edward III and the House of Lancaster. After Henry VIII’s grandfather, Edmund Tudor, Earl of Richmond, began using a white greyhound as his supporter, the beast became known as the White Greyhound of Richmond.
