For whatever reason you only allow 5 minutes to setup an account with banking info and to pay. With all the verifications that had to be done it took me 2 phones and at minimum 6 tries....that's annoying. We usually shop with APMEX and everything isn't on a timed rushed situation which makes for a much smoother process.

Introduction
The 1 oz Gold Royal Mint Tudor Beast (Dates/Designs Vary) combines one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold with designs rooted in the heraldry of England’s Tudor dynasty. Struck by The Royal Mint as part of The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection, each £100 legal tender bullion coin celebrates one of the symbolic creatures represented at Hampton Court Palace. With changing designs, investment-grade gold purity, and centuries of British history behind its imagery, the series offers appeal for both precious metals investors and collectors of modern world coinage.
History
The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection draws inspiration from the ten stone beasts that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace. These heraldic guardians represent the royal ancestry and union of Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour, using creatures associated with the dynastic claims and lineage of the Tudor family.
The Royal Mint brought these centuries-old symbols to modern coinage through a ten-design collection created in collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces. Illustrator and sculptor David Lawrence created the reverse artwork for the series, reinterpreting each historic beast for a modern coin. Bullion releases also incorporate surface animation into the reverse background, adding visual texture while providing an additional security feature. Dates and individual beast designs vary according to availability.
Design
The reverse varies by issue, with each release featuring David Lawrence’s interpretation of one of the ten heraldic beasts represented at Hampton Court Palace. Designs incorporate heraldic imagery connected to Tudor ancestry, while detailed background textures and surface animation give the bullion coins a distinctly modern character and provide an additional level of security.
The obverse features the reigning British monarch appropriate to the year of issue. Earlier coins in the series bear Jody Clark’s effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, while later releases feature Martin Jennings’ official coinage portrait of King Charles III. Each 1 oz bullion coin contains one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold and carries a face value of £100, bringing together Tudor history, British coinage, and investment-grade gold in a single series.
