  • The King OR The Queen Effigy. 2023 Britannia Series To Feature King Charles III. The New Design Replaces the Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, That Was Struck to Start The 2023 Series.  Enhanced With Four Advanced Security Features a Latent Image Changes from a Padlock to Britannia’s Famous Trident Surface Animation Brings the Background of Waves to Life. 
  • The Micro-Text Provides Both Decoration and Protection Britannia’s Shield Bears the Union Flag, Which Is Accented with Tincture Lines. Packaged In a Single Coin Tube For more than 1,100 years, The Royal Mint has innovated to create coins that are beautiful, secure and trusted. In 2023, Britannia, the symbol of Britain, continues to lead the way in defining security in the bullion market. This latest evolution of the icon combines Philip Nathan’s acclaimed interpretation with four groundbreaking security features to create the most visually secure bullion coin in the world. These additions both decorate and protect the coin, just as the micro-text that borders the design states – ‘Decus et Tutamen’, which translates as ‘An ornament and a safeguard’. In the lower left-hand of the design, below Britannia’s flowing gown, is a trident to represent her naval history. As the viewer changes their perspective this trident becomes a padlock, emphasising the coin’s secure nature. Surface animation behind Britannia reflects the movement of waves and fine details such as the Union flag on Britannia’s shield have been highlighted by tincture lines. This one ounce silver coin includes four security features as does the one kilo silver coin. These features are also available on the various gold editions of the coin. Celebrate the Silver Britannia's 27th Anniversary with this stunning new coin from The Royal Mint. A new radiating pattern has been added behind Britannia. Not only does this new feature add sophistication but is also an anti-counterfeiting security. The Silver Britannia has always offered beauty and reliability, and this newest release is no exception. Two well-known images in Britain's history, Britannia and Queen Elizabeth II, grace the opposing sides of this .999 fine Silver coin. This coin Contains 1 oz of .999 fine Silver. Obverse: Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, along with the face value of 2 pounds. Reverse: The legendary figure of Britannia holding a trident and shield. Her image has symbolized Britain's strength and integrity on coinage since Roman times. Sovereign coin backed by the British government.
