The Bull of Clarence and the Tudor rose

The black bull came to the Tudors from the House of York through the Dukes of Clarence. On the coin it holds a shield bearing the Tudor rose, the badge Henry VII created by combining the white rose of York and the red rose of Lancaster after the Wars of the Roses.

PCGS grading of the 2023 Tudor Beast Bull of Clarence 1oz Gold Coin

A graded Bull records both a key transition in the series and the condition of a heavily modelled design.

PCGS, the Professional Coin Grading Service, is a widely used independent coin-grading service. It verifies that a coin is genuine, assigns a grade on the 70-point Sheldon scale and encapsulates it in a sealed holder. Bullion coins are graded Mint State, abbreviated MS, with 70 the highest possible mark.

The grade of the coin supplied is the one stated on its PCGS label. Images are for illustration and grades may vary, so please contact our team if you would like a specific grade.

Why buy a PCGS 2023 Tudor Beast Bull of Clarence 1oz Gold Coin?

The certified Bull is the first King Charles III Tudor Beast in verified condition, a milestone date for series collectors.

It keeps a full ounce of CGT-exempt gold behind the collector interest.

Why buy 1oz gold coins?

The one-ounce coin is the standard unit of the gold market. Because gold is priced per troy ounce, a 1oz coin’s metal value is simple to follow, and the larger size usually carries a lower premium per gram than fractional coins. Compared with a large bar, a holding of 1oz coins can still be sold a coin at a time, so you keep flexibility without paying fractional-coin premiums.
