2005 Silver Britannia

JUST RELEASED! - 2005 British Uncirculated Silver Britannia

The 2005 British Silver Britannia features a stunning new design, by award-winning sculptor Philip Nathan. The coin depicts a seated figure of Britannia, similar to that used on British half pennies and farthings from 1672, which in turn reflected the original image of Britannia dating back to the British Roman coins of Emperor Hadrian (circa 117-138 A.D.).

The coin is GEM Brilliant Uncirculated with a brilliant "proof-like" finish. The coin contains 1.044 ounces of "Britannia" 0.958 fine silver (1 oz. net pure silver) and is legal tender in England with a face value of £2.

The Silver Britannia is arguably the most beautiful of all the world one ounce silver coins and is also very hard to find since few are exported to the United States. In fact, mintage is limited to only 100,000 coins world-wide! Compare this tiny mintage to the typical silver eagle annual mintage of 9 to 10 million coins. The coin comes packaged in it's original mint sealed plastic. Buy multiples of 20 coins and they will come in original mint sheets of twenty.

This exact coin is sold on the British Royal Mint website at £13.50 (about US$25.00) per coin PLUS international postage. Several major U.S. dealers offer this exact coin for around $20 each. We offer these coins at significant savings with the lowest prices you'll find anywhere!
