Unfazed by the eye of the storm, Britannia stands with unyielding resolve, safeguarding her ideals and values; a reassuringly familiar presence through times of upheaval and change. Since she first appeared on Royal Mint Bullion coins in 1987, Philip Nathan’s Britannia has been acclaimed as a modern masterpiece. Inspired by the warrior-queen Boudicca, commonly known as Boadicea, his design eschews classical Greek conventions and is instead marked by a raw realism. She might be surrounded by symbols of war, but the trident and shield disguise the truth of her intentions - clutched in her left hand is an olive branch of peace.

The 2018 Brilliant Uncirculated Britannia is a constant classic and one of our most popular coins.
