Obverse

On the obverse side of the 2024 Proof British The Seymour Unicorn Silver Coin, you’ll find a striking portrayal of King Charles III. This remarkable design, crafted by Martin Jennings in late 2022, marks the first-ever bust of Charles III. The portrait features a left-profile relief and notably lacks a crown. Inscriptions here include CHARLES III, D.G. REX. F.D., 10 POUNDS, and 2024.

Reverse

The reverse side of the 2024 Proof Tudor Beasts The Seymour Unicorn 5 oz Silver Coin proudly displays the Seymour Unicorn, capturing the essence of this unique creature. Like the other Tudor Beasts, this heraldic symbol was originally sculpted at Moat Bridge into Hampton Court. King Henry VIII presented this emblematic beast to his third wife, Jane Seymour, who stands as the only Tudor monarch’s wife to bear a surviving son. Inscriptions here read SEYMOUR UNICORN and 2024.

History

While the unicorn holds historical significance as a heraldic beast associated with Jane Seymour during the Tudor era, it continues to hold a special place in British heraldry. Since the 1603 union of England and Scotland, the unicorn has remained a prominent symbol in the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom. Within the coat of arms, the unicorn, along with the lion, stands as one of the supporters. The unicorn represents Scotland, while the lion symbolizes England, symbolizing the unity of these two kingdoms under a single monarch.
