.958 silver Britannia from The Royal Mint: pre-owned and VAT free. Britannias minted in 2010 were struck in 32.45 grams of .958 (95.8%) of silver.

That means we can offer them under the VAT margin scheme ensuring you get the best price. These coins were named for the national personification of the British Isles: Britannia. She's been a feature of British money since Roman times. Her own range of bullion coins were launched in 1987, initially in gold, with silver editions first issued in 1997. While many of these premier UK bullion coins feature the Philip Nathan's classic 'standing Britannia', collectors favour the special, one-off reverses, commissioned by The Royal Mint. 2010 Britannias show a new interpretation of this British icon, designed by portrait sculptor, Suzie Zamit. Her Britannia design features a realistic profile bust, wearing classical garb, her long hair flowing in the wind. Her helmet is pushed back on her head and features a lion design, a reference to the English lion, used in heraldry since the middle ages. Zamit's design is paired with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II to the obverse by Ian Rank-Broadley, introduced in 1998. 126,367 silver Britannias were offered by The Royal Mint in 2010 and ours come in top-notch condition: Extremely Fine or better. Each coin is carefully authenticated by our expert team and shipped securely and discretely in protective packaging.
