Over the years, the image of Britannia has altered slightly, with her maritime links being emphasized by switching her spear to a trident. Britannia is seen as a symbol of British unity, liberty and strength, meaning she resurfaces during particularly challenging times. Like Columbia in the U.S. and Marianne in France, Britannia becomes more prominent in times of war or when national pride is booming.
In 1987, Britannia’s image graced the new Gold bullion coin minted by the Royal Mint known as the Gold Britannia. These Gold coins have since grown in popularity as an investment and a collector’s piece. Gold Britannias are available in sizes as small as 1/20 oz and as large as 5 oz Gold coins. In 1997, the Royal Mint expanded this design to a Silver bullion coin known as the Silver Britannia. Over time, both the Gold Britannia and Silver Britannia have experienced changes in design and an increase in metal purity, making them major players in the modern coin market.

These are very hard to find. The downside of the otherwise beautiful 2017 design in general is that the queen's cheek rubs the radial lines when stacked in the tube leaving little scratches in the radial lines in that spot. On every single one of them. Still amazing though & the privy is rare & super cool.
- Pros
- Value (low premium over spot)
- Attractive Design
- Collectible (lower mintage)
- Easy to Sell
- Recognized Brand
- Bottom Line
- Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I was expecting it to come in BU condition. It looks dull and milky. Not happy with this purchase, and will return it. This is the first time I purchased a britania and not very happy with this experience. I have had to return coins to apmex in the past, and I am hoping they will make this right and give me a coin in much better condition.
