Britannia is a cherished emblem in British culture, a timeless symbol of British resilience and patriotism, embodying strength and grace. She symbolises protection and peace.
Crafted by Philip Nathan, the reverse of the Britannia Charles 1oz Silver Coin 2023 depicts Britannia standing atop rugged terrain, clad in flowing attire. Her right hand grasps a trident and her left hand holds an olive branch and shield.
Featuring four cutting-edge security elements, including accented tincture lines on the Union Jack, micro text for both decoration and protection, a dynamic surface animation representing waves, and a latent image transitioning from a padlock to Britannia's trident, the coin ensures authenticity and security.
The obverse side of the coin presents His Majesty King Charles III, designed by artist Martin Jennings, along with the coin's face value of 2 pounds inscribed in the legend.
