2018 Britannia Oriental Border 1 oz Silver Coin (with Capsule)

Britannia is an easily recognized symbol of the British people since the Roman Empire roamed the British Isles. When the Romans finally conquered Britain in the early 1st century, the new province of Rome was known as Britannia. The classic Britannia coin series was introduced by the British Royal Mint in 1997 and since then, features the stunning image of the beautiful Britannia - the female exemplification of Great Britain. Today, Britannia appears on the official bullion coin of the nation in both gold and silver releases.

For this special, limited-edition release by the Royal Mint, the 2018 1 oz Silver British Britannia Coin features an oriental border pattern on the coin’s reverse face. This design stems from the British Trade Dollar used in the Far East during the latter half of the 19th century.

This is the latest design of the Queen’s figure, created by Jody Clark in 2015. The reverse features the image of Britannia. On this face of the coin, you’ll find an engraving of the weight, purity, and metal content of the coin near Britannia’s trident, while the word “Britannia” is featured vertically along the shaft of the trident.
