1 Ounce 2023 Silver British Britannia Coin

The Royal Mint has had a reputation for producing beautiful and secure bullion coins for more than 1,100 years. The 2023 Britannia coins come with additional security features with some found on the modified version of Lady Britannia. Philip Nathan did the original Britannia design. However, the new version includes four key security features.

For instance, below Britannia’s gown, a trident that represents British history appears. When the coin is viewed from a different angle, the trident turns into a padlock. Furthermore, the animation behind Lady Britannia appears like moving waves when viewed from a different perspective.

Buy The 1 Ounce 2023 Silver Britannia Coin

The Silver Britannia coin is made in the same style as the Gold Britannia coin which was first produced in 1987. Sculptor Philip Nathan’s design shows the courage of the British people. In the design, Britannia is standing against a strong wind while holding a trident in her right hand and a shield in her left. The shield she is holding shows the Union Jack which is the official flag of Great Britain.

After the success of the gold Britannia coin, the Royal Mint started producing 1 Oz silver Britannia coin in 1997. In this first year, a small number of coins were issued as proof that the Royal Mint was producing silver coins. Over the years, the content of fine silver in the coins has gone up. For instance, from 1998-2012 the silver coin that was minted had a fineness of .958. However, Britannia silver coins minted from 2013 onwards had a fineness level of .999.
