The Royal Tudor Beasts: The Tudor Dragon 2 oz Silver 2024 is the fifth piece in the second series of The Royal Tudor Beasts. A collector coin, it shows the image of one of the ten heraldic Royal Beasts - the Tudor Dragon. Dragons were prominent symbols during the medieval period and were used by Owen Tudor, great-grandfather of Henry VIII. Henry VIII therefore believed this symbol to be linked to Cadwaladr, King of Gwynedd in Wales, reigning around 655-682. According to contemporary manuscripts, the Tudor Dragon had a red head, back and wings and a gold underside. The entire series will consist of 10 coins showing the likenesses of the animals - The Lion of England, The Bull of Clarence, The Tudor Dragon, The Greyhound of Richmond, The Royal Dragon, The Yale of Beaufort, The Seymour Unicorn, The Queen's Panther, The Queen's Lion and Seymour Panther.

The coin is struck in pure Ag.9999 sterling silver, weighing 2 troy ounces and measuring 38.61mm in diameter. The mintage of the product is unlimited. Furthermore, this extraordinary piece has been produced by The Royal Mint.

The obverse shows the likeness of King Charles III of Great Britain and the denomination, as designed by Martin Jennings. The Rewers depict one of the beasts of the Tudor kingdom - the Tudor Dragon - and the inscription "TUDOR DRAGON" "2024". The reverse was designed by David Lawrence.
