The Tudor Dynasty was formed in the aftermath of the Wars of the Roses between the House of Lancaster and the House of York. After struggling for control of the throne for decades, Henry Tudor’s forces ended the conflict with the defeat and killing of King Richard III, the last Yorkist king.
Henry Tudor married Elizabeth of York to merge the houses and form the House of Tudor. He ruled as the first monarch of the dynasty, with his second son and his granddaughter carrying on the Tudor banner for most of the next century. King Henry VIII had a tumultuous reign, while his daughter, Queen Elizabeth I, reigned for decades into the 17th century and reigned over a golden era in English history.
The obverse side of 2022 1 oz Platinum Tudor Beasts Lion Coins comes with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. In this design, Her Majesty is shown in right-profile relief at the age of 89 with the George IV State Diadem Crown on her head. The design was created in 2015 by Jody Clark.
On the reverse field of 2022 Platinum British Tudor Beasts Lion Coins is a depiction of the Lion of England. This design shows the shield with the impaled Royal Arms of King Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour. Henry’s portion of the shield features the Royal Arms of England, while Jane Seymour’s portion shows her personal coat of arms.
