The Royal Mint has combined tradition and innovation to create beautiful, secure, and trusted coins. In 2024, Britannia continues to lead the way in defining security in the bullion market. This latest incarnation of the icon combines Philip Nathan’s 1987 interpretation with four pioneering security features to create one of the most visually secure coins in the world. These additions have been applied to both decorate the coin and make it secure, just as the micro-text that borders the design states – ‘DECUS ET TUTAMEN,’ which translates as ‘An ornament and a safeguard.’
As one of the most recognizable coin designs of all time and one of the oldest in the world, Britannia is a symbol of its heritage and history. This silver coin features a reverse design by Philip Nathan with a standing Britannia carrying a trident in her right hand, an olive branch in her left, and Britannia’s shield bearing the Union Jack.
