Introduction
Tavex is delighted to present the Royal Tudor Beasts 2026 Royal Dragon 2oz Silver Bullion Coin, an impressive release from The Royal Mint's celebrated Royal Tudor Beasts collection. Celebrating the Royal Dragon — an enduring symbol of power, courage, and national identity — this coin combines exceptional craftsmanship with 99.99% pure silver, making it a perfect choice for both investors and collectors.
Recognised as legal tender in the United Kingdom, the 2oz Royal Dragon Silver Coin carries a face value of £5 and, as a British legal tender coin, is exempt from UK Capital Gains Tax for UK residents. It is the ninth release in a collection inspired by the stone statues that stand guard on the Moat Bridge at Hampton Court Palace — royal beasts originally carved to celebrate the union of Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour. The Royal Dragon itself is a legendary Celtic beast long associated with strength and sovereignty.
Each coin's reverse, a contemporary interpretation by artist David Lawrence, is enhanced with surface animation that evokes the grandeur of the Tudor period while adding a further layer of security against counterfeiting. The obverse features the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings.

The Royal Mint
The Royal Mint is one of the oldest and most respected government institutions of Great Britain. Its long operating history, by some estimates over 1100 years, and coupled with its production of many of the world’s most famous coins, like the gold sovereign, has contributed to making it one of the best known and renowned mints in the world. Since 1279 when the mint established its operation in the Tower of London, it has been responsible for the production of coins of the United Kingdom. Its reputation for excellence and trust was further reinforced when Sir Isaac Newton became Master of the Royal Mint. During his tenure at the Royal Mint, he was responsible for moving the British pound to the gold standard.
Today the Royal Mint is not only responsible for minting coins used for circulation in the UK, but is likewise producing official coinage for more than 60 countries in the world. However, the most important and renowned coin ever to come out of its minting presses has without doubt been the sovereign gold coin which even today is being produced at its minting facility in the town of Llantrisant, Wales, UK. The accuracy and quality of the modern gold sovereign coin is the same as it was two hundred years ago, containing 22 karats of fine gold and weighing exactly 7.98805 grams. The popularity of the gold sovereign has likewise not changed, as confirmed in 2014 when the Royal Mint ran out of 2014 sovereign gold coins due to exceptional demand. The gold sovereign is without doubt one of the foremost gold coins ever to be produced and the fact that almost 100,000,000 sovereigns gold coins have been minted since 1957 is a testament to their excellence and trustworthiness. The reputation of the gold sovereign coin as “the chief coin of the world” will live on for centuries, as savvy investors will always prefer to keep a portion of their wealth in gold coins which are secure, liquid and trustworthy.
