1oz Gold Coin — Graded MS68+

The 2025 Queen’s Panther continues The Royal Mint’s Royal Tudor Beasts collection — a sovereign bullion series inspired by the heraldic sculptures that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace.

The Queen’s Panther was granted by Henry VIII to Jane Seymour and symbolises dynastic alliance, legitimacy and royal authority. The reverse design, created by David Lawrence, depicts the panther bearing the impaled arms of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour — a visual representation of Tudor consolidation and sovereign union.

Enhanced with modern surface animation technology, the design incorporates advanced security features while preserving heraldic precision.

The obverse features the official portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings, situating this issue firmly within the evolving narrative of modern British coinage.

Struck in one troy ounce of 999.9 fine gold, this example is designated First Strike and independently graded MS68+, confirming exceptional mint-state quality and early-release certification.

As part of a defined Tudor Beasts series under the reign of King Charles III, high-grade First Strike examples hold particular structural significance within the collection.
