Originally representing Anne Boleyn, and Katherine of Aragon before her, the Seymour Panther was given to Jane Seymour, Henry VIII’s third wife, by the king from the royal treasury of beasts. Although the stone beast is depicted as a ferocious animal, with flames coming from its mouth and ears, the Seymour Panther symbolized a peaceful and loving union between the king and consort who bore him the male heir he so desperately yearned for.
This coin is a fitting tribute to a fiery beast that represents the union between a committed consort and mighty monarch. Start your Royal Tudor Beasts Collection today with the Seymour Panther – the inaugural coin in a collection honoring one of the Britain’s most powerful dynasties.

The Lion of England is one of the oldest and most iconic royal beast in heraldic art. Used on the shield of England for as long as one has existed, the lion first appeared in heraldry in the twelfth century. Chosen to represent pride and courage, the Lion of England on the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace held a shield bearing the impaled – or combined – arms of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour, symbolizing the strength of the couple’s union.
The coin features a depiction of the Lion of England that is as fearsome as the original stone beast itself. Snarling with sharp claws and boasting an impressive mane topped with a royal crown, the Lion of England truly is king of the Royal Beasts.
