The annually changing design of the Tudor Beasts series is inspired by the rich history of the British monarchy. This remarkable series is based on ten heraldic beasts that played an important role in the Tudor court of King Henry VIII. The White Greyhound of Richmond is one of the ten sculptures that guard the bridge over the moat at Hampton Court Palace, just outside London. Over a five-year period, the ten heraldic beasts are depicted on the reverse of the Tudor Beasts coins. All of them designed by David Lawrence. The White Greyhound of Richmond represents not only a loyal guardian but also symbolises Henry VIII’s lineage from both the House of Lancaster and the House of Tudor. The obverse features the portrait of King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings.

The 1 troy ounce Platinum Tudor Beasts 2025 Greyhound of Richmond includes a unique textured background that creates an almost holographic effect when the coin is tilted.
