The British Silver Britannia coin was once one of the most circulated coins in the world. Used in the British Isles and throughout the Commonwealth nations, these coins were a symbol of British power and influence. Today, the coins remain as a testament of Britain’s place in the world. Now, the 2016 1 oz British Silver Britannia Coin is available from JM Bullion in BU condition.
Coin Highlights:
Britannia coins in their modern incarnation were not introduced until 1987 in gold, and 1997 in silver. However, the image of Britannia and its use on British coins dates back more than 300 years to the formation of a unified United Kingdom between Britain, Scotland, and Ireland.
The image of Britannia and her place in British culture date back even further, approximately 2,000 years to the arrival of Roman soldiers on the British Isles. Britannia was originally the name of the isles and the inhabitants in Latin, given to the region by the conquering Romans. Over time, Britannia came to hold status as a goddess of sorts, representing the protective nature of Britain.
British Silver Britannia coins are available in 1 oz, ½ oz, ¼ oz, and 1/10 oz. The silver coins originally consisted of .958 silver from 1997 to 2012, but now feature .999 pure silver. Each coin in this product listing is in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, meaning there are no signs of wear and tear.
On the reverse side of each coin is the image of Britannia, the guardian of the British Isles. She is featured with a trident in her right hand, a Corinthian helmet upon her head, and a shield in her left hand with the Union Jack emblazoned on it as she stands ready to defend Britain.
The obverse features the latest depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. The nation’s longest serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth II’s image has been updated for the first time since 1998. This fifth-generation depiction of the Queen was created by Jody Clark and unveiled in July 2015.

"Not my favorite coin, but it does have a very unique border which looks very nice. If you want a closer look, check out my unboxing from JMBullion... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBvPSj-j02I"
"These silver Britannia coins are Absolutely Gorgeous, and in just shy of a year and a half I've put in 39 orders with JM Bullion spending just shy of $6,000 on there Gold and Silver, and I know if I would have went else where like Apmex , Gainsville or Silvertowne I would have spent close to $400.00 more for the same product. I did the math and I urge any buyer to do the same, JM Bullion can't be beat on there pricing."
"Great looking coin, I was happy to buy them on sale."
"Excellent service JMB. These coins are great. A real good buy."
"I love Britannias, gold and silver... they are my 2nd favorite flavor of government issue coin, after the Maple Leaf. It seems like it's just a matter of taste. If you don't have one, buy one and compare for yourself."
"I've ordered different silver bullion from JM Bullion twice now. Both times I'm extremely happy with the product. It has exceeded my expectations. The coins are much more striking (no pun intended) than the photos online. Very happy with the service. Prices are reasonable too, although I wish the markup for Paypal payments were less. (my preferred method of payment). I've recommended JM Bullion to several others and will likely continue to buy from them!"
"Charles commented below about the strike on these coins and I just want to say the Brittanias I received Were Crystal clear and all wording on coin was easily Readable,so I suggest buying 5 coins instead of mint sealed tubes of 20 was his problem,loose coins can be worn,but 999 silver is the value,the coin not so much.bottom line,the coins I received were Beautiful."
"These are very attractive coins - much prettier than the BU grade American Silver Eagles that I've received. Excellent service from JMB."
