The Richmond White Hound coin is more than just a piece of gold. It is a tribute to the rich and intricate history of the British monarchy. It is part of a series that honors ten heraldic statues that stood during the Queen's coronation in 1953, representing various themes of royal ancestry. The White Hound symbolizes loyalty, unity, and the historical heritage of the Tudor dynasty. The coin's detailed design and historical significance make it a valuable item for those interested in British heritage and numismatic craftsmanship.
The gold coin was minted by the Royal Mint and designed by the renowned artist Jody Clark. The obverse of the coin features an image of Queen Elizabeth II. This image has been used since 2015 and shows the Queen in profile facing right. She is depicted wearing the royal diadem, which she traditionally wears on the occasion of the ceremonial opening of Parliament.
The reverse side shows a white greyhound from Richmond, depicted in a powerful and alert stance. One paw is resting on a shield bearing the Tudor rose. This is a heraldic emblem representing the union of the House of Lancaster and the House of York. The greyhound is depicted in minute detail, emphasizing its lean and muscular physique, symbolizing its speed, grace, and loyalty.
The White Hound gold coin is part of the prestigious Queen's Beasts series, which celebrates the rich heraldic history and lineage of the British monarchy. The series was inspired by ten heraldic statues created for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. These statues, sculpted by James Woodford, symbolized various aspects of royal ancestry. Each beast has a unique history and represents different families and their contributions to the British royal line. The White Hound of Richmond is a heraldic symbol with deep significance. It is associated with the House of Lancaster and the House of Tudor, two influential families in English history. The hound was the emblem of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, and was later adopted by his son, King Henry IV.
