Britannia has symbolized Britain’s strength and guardianship for nearly 2,000 years. Her first appearance dates back to Roman coinage, where she represented the island’s coastal defenses. Revived for British currency under Charles II in 1672, she became a steadfast emblem of national pride and maritime authority. The modern Britannia bullion series, launched in 1987, quickly earned global acclaim for combining classical beauty with world-class minting standards. Today, Britannia remains one of the most recognizable figures in international bullion.
