Outside of these programs, you will find a variety of other British silver coins available from the Royal Mint that attract investors and collectors, as well as coins produced by the most prominent private mint in the United Kingdom, the Pobjoy Mint.

The Valiant Series

One of the most important cultural tales from Medieval Britain is that of St. George. Riding upon a small kingdom that had been besieged by a dragon and forced to sacrifice its young women to satisfy the beast, St. George stepped in to defend the kingdom. The king and queen had recently sent their own daughter to the dragon when George arrived, so he rode out to meet the beast. It has been popularly retold over centuries that St. George rode his horse out to challenge the dragon and was able to slay it with his spear and sword. In 2019, the Royal Mint introduced the new British Silver Valiant Series. Below are some of the important details of the collection:

• Reverse features a depiction of St. George on horseback as he rides over the dragon and spears it in the heart.
• Obverse depicts Queen Elizabeth II in the right-profile relief created in July 2015 by Jody Clark.
• Coins feature .9999 pure silver in BU condition.
• The Royal Mint offers the coins in 1 Troy oz and 10 Troy oz options with face values in Pound sterling.

Commemorative 007, James Bond Coins

In 2020, the Royal Mint launched a series of collectible silver coins to honor the release of a 25^th feature film in the Eon Production series of James Bond films. The upcoming release of a milestone film in the franchise pushed mints around the world to celebrate with a range of collectible silver coins. At the Royal Mint, this consisted of 1 oz, 1/2 oz, and 2 oz proof silver coins with unique packaging. The available designs include:

• Bond, James Bond: a riff on the secret agent’s famous introduction line, the Bond, James Bond release from the Royal Mint came with a depiction of the famous D85 Aston Martin used by Sean Connery in the role of James Bond in several of the early feature films.
• Pay Attention 007: the second design released features another of the popular super cars used by James Bond characters. This time the design captures the Wet Nellie, a Lotus Espirit S1 that had been modified by Q for Bond to use underwater as a submarine. It was famously used in the 10^th bond film, The Spy Who Loved Me, starring Roger Moore as Bond.

Myths and Legends Series

Introduced in 2021, the new Myths and Legends Series from the Royal Mint starts with the depiction of a British folk hero. Robin Hood famously stole from the rich to give to the poor people in English society. Taking cover in the woods of Sherwood Forest and battling the tax collectors and forces of the Sheriff of Nottingham, Robin Hood “recollected” tax dollars headed for local nobles and the monarchy to redistribute to the poor. With 1 Troy oz of .999 pure silver, the coins bear the following designs:

• Robin Hood is depicted on bended knee within the branches of a massive oak tree in Sherwood Forest. He has drawn an arrow from his quiver and is taking aim with his bow to strike his foe.
