1/4 oz Gold Royal Mint Tudor Beast (Dates/Designs Vary)

The 1/4 oz Gold Tudor Beast coin is a standout in modern gold bullion, combining investment-grade purity with deep historical significance. Issued by The Royal Mint, this series follows the success of the earlier Queen’s Beast coins and celebrates the heraldic symbols tied to the Tudor dynasty. Each coin in this listing contains one-quarter ounce of .9999 fine gold, struck to brilliant uncirculated quality. Designs and years will vary, offering collectors and investors a unique piece of royal history in every coin.

The Tudor Beast series was inspired by the ten stone beasts that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace, a grand estate built by Cardinal Wolsey and later taken over by King Henry VIII. These mythical and historic creatures represent strength, lineage, and royal legitimacy. Among the beasts featured in the series are the Lion of England, the Yale of Beaufort, the Tudor Dragon, the Bull of Clarence, and others, each depicted in a bold and artistic style.

The Royal Mint has brought these ancient symbols to life with modern striking techniques and exceptional attention to detail. The reverse of each coin features a different Tudor beast, designed by acclaimed artist David Lawrence. The obverse features an effigy of King Charles III or Queen Elizabeth II, depending on the year of issue. This variation adds an additional layer of collectibility, especially for those interested in the transition between monarchs.

Each 1/4 oz Gold Tudor Beast coin carries a face value of 25 pounds and is legal tender in the United Kingdom. Measuring approximately 22 mm in diameter, these coins offer the perfect balance between affordability and visual detail. While smaller than the full one-ounce version, the quarter-ounce format still allows for stunning design clarity and offers a lower-cost entry point into gold ownership and collection.

For investors, the .9999 fine gold content ensures high purity and strong market recognition. Fractional gold coins like this one are particularly appealing for those looking to diversify a precious metals portfolio or maintain liquidity. They are easier to trade or sell in smaller increments compared to larger bars or coins.

For collectors, the Tudor Beast series builds upon the momentum of the popular Queen’s Beast program. Its continuation of British heraldic themes makes it an appealing choice for those already familiar with or building a Royal Mint-themed collection. Because this listing includes various designs and dates, each purchase is a step toward building a broader and more complete set.

Each coin will be shipped in protective packaging to preserve its condition and luster. Many buyers choose to display these coins in albums or custom presentation cases to highlight the evolving designs and consistent quality of the series.

Whether you are a history enthusiast, a gold investor, or a collector of modern mint issues, the 1/4 oz Gold Tudor Beast coin offers tremendous value. Its combination of sovereign minting, historical symbolism, artistic design, and pure gold content makes it an enduring addition to any portfolio or collection.
