2022 2 oz GB The Britannia Silver Proof Coin
Product Description
Britannia first appeared on coins struck in Roman times and was revived on circulating coins 350 years ago, during the reign of Charles II, when she appeared on the reverse of copper halfpennies and farthings. Since then, Britannia has been included on the coins of every British monarch and has come to represent hope and strength of character in challenging times.
