The significance of the unicorn in British heraldry is intriguing. While King Henry VIII adopted it as a heraldic beast for his third wife, Jane Seymour, the unicorn has held a prominent place in the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom since the union of England and Scotland in 1603. In the coat of arms, the unicorn symbolizes Scotland, standing alongside the lion, which represents England. This emblem represents the unity of the two kingdoms under one monarch.

The obverse of the 2024 Proof British Silver Tudor Beasts – The Seymour Unicorn Coin features King Charles III. This striking portrait, created by Martin Jennings in late 2022, marks the first-ever bust of Charles III. It offers a left-profile relief and does not include a crown.

On the reverse side of the coin, you’ll find the Seymour Unicorn. This captivating creature was originally depicted in statue form along Moat Bridge into Hampton Court. King Henry VIII bestowed this heraldic beast upon his third wife, Jane Seymour, who bore him a surviving son, making her a unique figure in Tudor history.
