Britannia first appeared on coins struck in Roman times and was revived on circulating coins 350 years ago, during the reign of Charles II, when she appeared on the reverse of copper halfpennies and farthings. Since then, Britannia has been included on the coins of every British monarch and has come to represent hope and strength of character in challenging times. Dan Thorne’s design incorporates celebrated, traditional imagery, including the trident, shield and lion, whilst featuring a bold, modern background filled with sunrays and rising waves. Bringing optimism following challenging times, these Britannia 2022 UK Coins are an essential addition to any modern collection or investment portfolio - secure yours today!
