Symbolising Britain for nearly 2,000 years, Britannia first appeared on coins during the reign of the Ancient Roman Emperor Hadrian. She was recalled to Britain’s currency by King Charles II in 1672 following the Restoration of the Monarchy after the English Civil Wars, and she has appeared on the coins of every British king or queen since.
Brilliantly designed – superbly struck
Struck to faultless Proof quality from 1oz of 99.9% silver, the latest tribute to Britannia is a brilliant work of numismatic art. Created by artist James Tottle, the new design is respectful of the past but also contemporary. Britannia stands facing into the wind, a trident planted into the rocks as the waves crash around her. An inspired addition, Britannia holds a shield featuring the head of a lion.
An impressive presentation…
A fine presentation, the Britannia United Kingdom 2020 £2 1oz Silver Proof Coin is housed in an official Royal Mint case. An individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity completes the presentation.
Tiny limited edition – act now!
A gripping tribute to Britain’s iconic warrior maiden, this crown-sized British legal tender coin is also surprisingly exclusive. The limited edition has been restricted to a mere 3,000 coins!
With Britannia coins always extremely popular, and only having secured only a tiny number, we recommend immediate action. Press add to cart now!
