The Final Britannia Silver Bullion Coins To Feature Queen Elizabeth II!

 

Britannia, that ancient warrior queen who defended Britain’s shores from invasion and oppression, is back on the British Royal Mint’s annual Britannia Silver Bullion Coins. And these coins available here represent the final issue of the 2023 Britannia series to feature Queen Elizabeth II. A new design, featuring the effigy of King Charles III, will be issued in the new year meaning this will be a limited run featuring The Queen.

 

TheRoyal Mint’s Iconic Symbol Of Britain

 

The embodiment of a nation and icon of maritime sovereignty, Britannia has symbolized Britain for centuries, appearing on coins dating all the way back to the Roman Empire. More recently, her name and image have graced the United Kingdom’s Britannia bullion coin series since 1987. Philip Nathan’s design of Britannia standing unwaveringly on a wind-swept shore, trident in one hand with branch and shield in the other, won “Coin of the Year” honors for its debut. Originally intended as a gold bullion series, the Silver Britannia coins were added to the annual production 10 years later in 1997 with the same breathtaking design. The gorgeous silver bullion coin comes minted in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver ready to make her stand out in your collection!

 

Nearly Flawless Coins From Among The First Released

 

Each coin in this offer was struck by the artisans of the Royal Mint and has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in near-perfect Uncirculated Mint State-69 (MS69) condition, a, distinction that means these almost-flawless coins showcase impressive full strikes and indistinguishable imperfections—well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series. In addition, NGC has certified that these Silver Britannias are First Releases (FR) coins, a designation that means they were received by NGC or an NGC-approved depository within the first 30 days of their release. Each will come sonically sealed in a museum-quality acrylic holder and encapsulated with a special Britannia label.

 

Enhanced And Improved Security Features

 

The Mint has also gone to great lengths to assure collectors of the provenance of these coins with not one, but FOUR security features. These added security features both decorate and protect the coin. They include:

 

In the lower left-hand of the design, below Britannia’s flowing gown, is a trident to represent her naval history. Depending on the angle at which it is viewed, the trident becomes a padlock to emphasize the coin’s secure nature.

Surface animation reflects the movement of waves.

Fine details like the Union flag on Britannia’s shield have been carefully highlighted in the coin’s bullion finish.

Micro-text that borders the design states: “DECUS ET TUTAMEN,” which translates to “an ornament and a safeguard.”

 

Fans of British history, coin collectors and silver stackers alike will all be vying for Britannia’s attention. Make sure she finds her way into your collection; order one of these exquisite coins today!
