Britannia has long been a symbol of Britain, appearing on currency for over 350 years. She is featured as a Roman goddess with a trident and shield and wearing a Corinthian helmet. Significant upheaval through the centuries, including the Black Plague and the war with Scotland, the Royal Mint has weathered many storms, emerging as one of the most prestigious mints in the world today.
Collectors are attracted to the intricate design of the Royal Mint’s Sovereigns, Britannia’s and Queen’s Beasts coins, available in fractional sizes and their equally impressive bars and rounds.
