Henry VIII's Great Seal of the Realm

Since the reign of Edward the Confessor in the 11th century ‘seals’ have been used in Britain to symbolise the official will and authority of the monarch.

All important state documents have to include a seal as the physical mark of royal ratification.

FROM THE ROYAL MINT MUSEUM

Every monarch has had their own unique seal – with some even having multiple if they ruled for many years and Henry VIII is arguably one of the most notorious monarchs to sit on the throne.

Now you can own the seal from his mighty reign – remastered from specimens held in The Royal Mint Museum’s collection.

But, with just 10,000 issued worldwide, demand is likely to exceed availability...
