Coin Information:

The sixth coin in the Royal Tudor Beasts series featured the majestic Tudor Dragon. The Tudor Dragon is the last of the 10 King’s Beasts you’ll pass on the moat bridge before entering Hampton Court Palace. The dragon represents the Welsh lineage of the Tudor dynasty, and has been associated with Wales for centuries since it was adopted by Henry VIII. The design, by David Lawrence, features the dragon in all its majestic glory, holding a shield emblazoned with the Beaufort Portcullis badge.
