1oz Gold Coin — Graded MS68+

The 2024 Royal Dragon forms part of The Royal Mint’s Royal Tudor Beasts collection — a sovereign bullion series inspired by the heraldic statues that stand along the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace.

The Tudor Dragon is one of the most enduring emblems of the Tudor dynasty, symbolising legitimacy, authority and dynastic continuity. Closely associated with the establishment of Tudor rule under Henry VII, the dragon represents the consolidation of power that defined a transformative period in British history.

The reverse design, created by illustrator David Lawrence, presents a detailed interpretation of the Tudor Dragon as depicted at Hampton Court — combining historic heraldry with modern minting precision.

Struck in one troy ounce of 999.9 fine gold, this example has been independently graded MS68+, confirming exceptional mint-state quality and strong strike integrity. As part of a defined sovereign-backed series, high-grade releases continue to attract sustained collector and investor interest.
