1997 Britannia Tenth Ounce Silver Proof Coin
This 1997 1/10oz silver proof Britannia is one of the first silver Britannias and a key acquisition for any collector. This fractional coin is struck in .958 Britannia silver to The Royal Mint's proof standard. Its reverse features Philip Nathan's powerful chariot design, showing Britannia as a warrior queen, driving a chariot pulled by two spirited horses: a striking image that evokes the legendary Boudicca. The obverse bears Raphael Maklouf's third definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, the only year it appeared on silver Britannias. With 8,686 coins issued in this individual presentation, this is a cornerstone piece for anyone building a complete Britannia date run. Each pre-owned example is supplied in its original Royal Mint display case with a certificate of authenticity. System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[System.String] System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[System.String]
