For centuries, Britannia has embodied the female personification of Britain, evolving over time to reflect the nation's spirit and identity. Her origins trace back to the 2nd century, appearing on the coins of Roman Emperor Hadrian. Since 1672, Britannia has been a constant presence on British coinage. Today, she graces The Royal Mint’s flagship Britannia bullion coin. This globally recognised portrayal, crafted by sculptor Philip Nathan in 1987, symbolises Britain's essence with carefully chosen elements: a shield for protection, an olive branch for peace, and a trident to represent maritime power. Only The Royal Mint is authorized to produce authentic Britannia coins featuring Nathan’s award-winning design, with the 2025-dated bullion coins continuing this proud tradition.
