History of the British Britannia Coin
The Britannia coin series has a rich history dating back to Roman times when Britannia was first depicted as a female figure symbolizing the island of Britain. The figure of Britannia became a symbol of strength, unity, and national identity in the 17th century and was depicted on various coins and medals. In 1987, the Royal Mint of the United Kingdom introduced the British Britannia gold coin as a bullion coin, featuring the image of Britannia on the obverse. Over the years, the series expanded to include platinum and silver Britannia coins, which have become popular among investors and collectors due to their high purity and status as legal tender in the UK. The design of the coin has undergone several updates, but the depiction of Britannia remains a constant feature, making it a cherished symbol of British heritage and tradition.
These coins are available individually or in tubes of 10 coins.
The Royal Mint also produces the gold Sovereign, and the Queen's Beasts series, which is also available in gold, silver and platinum.
