Details
The Britannia silver coin was first released in 1997 by the British Royal Mint.
Initially, the coins had a fineness of 958.0/1000. In 2013 this was changed to a fineness of 999.0/1000, in order to be able to compete with other bullion coins available.
The obverse of the coin shows a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as customary for coins minted for the Commonwealth.
In 1998 and all subsequent even-numbered years the reverse design depicted a standing Britannia figure. Beginning in 1999 and continuing in odd-numbered years, a series of alternate, non-repeating depictions of Britannia have replaced the standing figure on the reverse. From 2013, the proof versions of the coin feature a different design each year, while the bullion version of the coin will always feature the classic standing Britannia.
Gold Britannia are also available in sizes of 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1 oz.
