A Symbol Over 2,000 Years in the Making

Britannia’s story begins in the second century, when she first appeared on the coins of Roman Emperor Hadrian as the female personification of Britain. She has graced British coinage continuously since 1672, evolving through the ages to mirror the spirit of a nation. Today, she stands as The Royal Mint’s flagship bullion icon — recognized and trusted worldwide.

Sculptor Philip Nathan created this definitive portrayal in 1987, presenting Britannia as the “queen of the seas” bearing three carefully chosen symbols of British identity — a shield for protection, an olive branch for peace, and a trident for maritime heritage. Only The Royal Mint is authorized to strike genuine Britannia coins featuring Nathan’s award-winning design.

Four Advanced Security Features

The 2026 Britannia is fortified with four cutting-edge anti-counterfeiting technologies, making each coin instantly verifiable and virtually impossible to replicate:

• Latent Image Technology — Tilt the coin and watch a padlock transform into Britannia’s legendary trident — a seamless shift between symbols of security and maritime power.
• Surface Animation — Advanced minting techniques bring the ocean waves behind Britannia to life, creating visible movement as your viewing angle shifts.
• Micro-Text Border — The Latin motto “DECUS ET TUTAMEN” — “an ornament and a safeguard” — encircles the design, blending refined decoration with robust counterfeiting protection.
• Tincture Lines — Precision heraldic engraving accentuates the Union flag on Britannia’s shield, adding intricate detail that doubles as an additional security measure.
