2023 1 oz Silver Britannia Coin BU

2023 1 oz Silver Britannia Coin

Among the oldest mints worldwide and official producers of British coins, The Royal Mint has produced uncountable coins over the years and remains one of the most respected institutes.

Its most successful coin program is the Britannia Series, composed of gold and silver coins that charm investors who value high levels of metal content and collectors who admire some numismatics in the coin’s designs.

These 1 oz Silver Britannias contain the most refined .999 silver bullion, produced in BU condition and careful procedures to make the astonishing design that stamps the coin’s sides more visible.

Coin Highlights

• Contains 1 oz of .999 fine silver in BU condition;
• Face value of 2 pounds sterling guaranteed by the Great Britain Government;
• 27th issue of the Silver Version;
• The obverse features Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II;
• The reverse displays Britannia’s depiction.

The Design

The obverse features a recent Jody Clark depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty’s effigy dates back to 2015, and the information that encircles the image corresponds to the coin’s face value of “2 POUNDS”, “ELIZABETH II,” and the letters “D G REG F D,” which stands for “By the Grace of God, Queen” in Latin.

The reverse showcases Britannia, the feminine personification of the nation. In the image, she stands against the wind, carrying the Union Jack Shield and her trident as a symbol of resistance. Around her, the inscriptions read “BRITANNIA”, the year of issuance, “ 1 oz,” “‘999 FINE SILVER.”

The Mintage

The Britannia Series debuted in 1987 with the 1 oz Gold Britannia Coin and the fractional sizes that followed suit. 

The British Royal Mint only included the Silver Britannia in the collection in 1997 with .958 silver content, which became .999 fine silver in 2013.

2022 celebrated the 25th anniversary of the coin’s annual strikes in the bullion market as a sign of investors' and collectors’ appreciation for the coin’s elegant design and high levels of silver content. 

Because of that, the 2023 edition may be an exciting opportunity to include this precious silver coin in a diversified investment portfolio.
