The Royal Mint
500 Britannias in silver.
Philip Nathan’s Britannia
The sculptor created her in 1987 for a new bullion coin from The Royal Mint.
She wears a Corinthian helmet with a high crest, while her hair and robes flow to the left.
The trident
She holds it with her arm outstretched. It stands for her connection with the sea.
The shield
It bears the Union Flag and stands for protection.
The olive branch
She holds it above the shield. It stands for peace.
Meaning as given by The Royal Mint, details from a product photo.
500 coins
The Royal Mint packs 500 ounces into a master box of 20 tubes with 25 coins each, and each row stands for one tube.
Since the 2021 issue
Four features you can see in the light
Turn the coin in the light and you can check that it is genuine. According to The Royal Mint, this makes the Britannia one of the most visually secure bullion coins in the world.
The latent image
At the bottom left, below the robes, it alternates between a trident and a padlock depending on the viewing angle.
The micro-text
DECUS ET TUTAMEN, an ornament and a safeguard, runs around the figure. The words already appeared on the edge of English coins in the 17th century.
The waves
When the coin is turned, waves seem to move behind the figure. To create them, a picosecond laser makes indentations which, according to The Royal Mint, are 200 times narrower than a human hair.
The lines in the shield
Fine, smooth lines trace the light and dark tones of the flag.
From Hadrian to Charles III
around119
On Roman coins
Under Emperor Hadrian, Britannia appears on a coin for the first time: a woman on rocks, with a spear and a shield, and below her the word BRITANNIA.
1672
Back on English coins
She returns on England’s first official copper coins, the halfpenny and the farthing, under Charles II. Tradition has it that Frances Stuart, a lady of the court, sat as her model.
1997
The Britannia in silver
Ten years after the gold Britannia comes the silver one, with 958 parts per thousand of silver until 2012. As early as 1697, England had prescribed exactly this fineness for silverware, which was hallmarked with a seated Britannia.
2013
In fine silver
Since then, the silver Britannia has been struck in fine silver.
2023
The King’s portrait
According to The Royal Mint, the 2023 Britannia is the world’s first bullion coin to bear the official portrait of King Charles III. The sculptor Martin Jennings called it his smallest work.
The Royal Mint in Wales
Since 1975, The Royal Mint has struck coins only in Llantrisant in South Wales. Queen Elizabeth II had opened the first phase of the site on 17 December 1968.
By its own account, it looks back on a history of more than 1,100 years.
Every year, an independent jury tests the weight and fineness of its coins at Goldsmiths’ Hall in London, during the Trial of the Pyx.
“Steadfast in the eye of the storm.”
This is how The Royal Mint describes its Britannia.
In fine silver.

Britannia – More than just a coin
The Silver Britannia is far more than a bullion coin. It is the embodiment of a thousand-year-old tradition! As early as 119 AD, the Romans were the first to mint the image of the goddess Britannia on their coins. Today, almost 2000 years later, she still stands as a symbol of freedom, maritime power and the unyielding spirit of Great Britain.
"The Britannia series is among the world's most recognised silver coin series and represents British coinage tradition at its finest."
Technical perfection meets timeless elegance
With a diameter of 38.60 mm and a thickness of 3.00 mm, each coin sits perfectly in the hand. The face value of 2 GBP may seem modest – but the true value lies in the precious metal itself. Silver has proven itself as a reliable store of value over the centuries and offers the perfect crisis protection, especially in uncertain times.
