For more than 1,100 years, The Royal Mint has innovated to create coins that are beautiful, secure and trusted. In 2023, Britannia, the symbol of Britain, continues to lead the way in defining security in the bullion market. This latest evolution of the icon combines Philip Nathan’s acclaimed interpretation with four ground-breaking security features to create the most visually secure bullion coin in the world. These additions both decorate and protect the coin, just as the micro-text that borders the design states – ‘Decus et Tutamen’, which translates as ‘An ornament and a safeguard’. In the lower left-hand of the design, below Britannia’s flowing gown, is a trident to represent her naval history. As the viewer changes their perspective this trident becomes a padlock, emphasising the coin’s secure nature. Surface animation behind Britannia reflects the movement of waves and fine details such as the Union flag on Britannia’s shield have been highlighted by tincture lines.


NB : To retain value & allowing it to be displayed, these coins are placed carefully with cotton gloves into a Quick slab capsule to prevent finger-marks & possible accidental damage, protecting your Coin investment for years to come. They can be removed if desired from the casing & placed in your own display or your way of presenting coins and be re-labelled and re-used time and again
