Just like the Ten beasts that lined the entry to Westminster, there are another ten heraldic beasts that flank the Moat Bridge of Hampton Court Palace! Linking back to King Henry VIII, each beast signifies the king's regal lineage whilst also celebrating his marriage to Jane Seymour.
The fifth beast to join the series is the Seymour Unicorn. Wild and untamed, the unicorn was believed to be the strongest of all creatures, so to have one set in stone outside the palace was a clear display of royal dominance.
Struck from one ounce of 99.9% pure silver, each King's Beasts coin is part of a limited edition in this packaging of just 5,000.
