The Royal Mint

The Royal Mint is the national mint of the United Kingdom, responsible for producing all of the country's coins. With a history spanning over a thousand years, it has become one of the oldest and most respected mints in the world.

Originally located in London, The Royal Mint relocated to Wales in the mid-20th century. Despite this change in location, the Royal Mint continues the tradition of British coin production, dating back to 886 AD.

The Royal Mint is renowned for its high level of craftsmanship and innovation. In 2020, it was granted a patent for its "SecureSurface" technology, which enhances the security of gold and silver coins by preventing counterfeiting and allowing easy verification of the coin’s authenticity. All bullion coins are struck with incredible precision and quality, making Royal Mint coins highly popular among collectors and investors worldwide.

The Royal Mint is also dedicated to education and raising awareness about coinage and monetary history. It operates its own museum, where visitors can explore the rich history of minting in Britain and learn how coins are made and tested. With its millennium-long history of coin production and continued commitment to innovation and exceptional quality, The Royal Mint stands as a true symbol of British tradition and craftsmanship.

Britannia Silver Bullion Coins

The Silver Britannia is a bullion coin produced by the British Royal Mint, serving as a significant symbol of British minting history and national identity. It is highly popular in the world of coins and precious metals.

First issued in 1997, the Silver Britannia has been released annually since then. The coin has a nominal face value of 2 pounds, making it legal tender in the United Kingdom, although its actual value as a bullion coin is much higher, determined by the current price of silver on global markets.

The Britannia bullion coin contains one troy ounce (31.1 grams) of pure silver with a fineness of 0.999 (often referred to as .999 fine silver). This makes the coin nearly pure silver, which is why it is so popular among investors and precious metal collectors.

Coin Design:

On the obverse (front) side, the coin features the face value according to the size of the coin and a portrait of the current monarch of the United Kingdom. Until 2023, the coin depicted Queen Elizabeth II, and from 2023, it features King Charles III.

On the reverse (back) side, Britannia, the personification of the British Isles, is depicted holding a trident and a shield, symbolizing Britain’s naval power and defense. Britannia is set against a background of waves, representing the seas surrounding the British Isles. The design may slightly change from year to year, adding interest and allowing collectors to build a diverse collection. The reverse also includes the year of minting, the fineness "999 FINE SILVER," and the weight "1 OZ."
