The British Britannia Series is one of the leading bullion collections available to investors on an annual basis. The series has gone through long spells between introductions of gold, silver, and platinum coins. For example, it was a decade between the introduction of the gold and silver coins, with an even longer span between the debut of the silver and platinum coins.

The image of Britannia is not just one of the oldest British coin designs still in use, it is one of the oldest symbols of Britain. Long before modern Britain emerged in the 9th century as a modern, singular kingdom, Britannia was used in the Roman world as a personification of the ancient peoples of Britain and as the name for the province when the British Isles were under the control of the Roman Empire.

Coins purchased in multiples of 25 arrive in mint tubes, while multiples of 500 arrive in Monster Boxes that contain 20 tubes of 25 coins.

On the obverse side of the 2021 British Platinum Britannia Coin is a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Introduced to British coins in 2016, this fifth-generation effigy of the Queen was designed in July 2015 by Jody Clark and features Her Majesty wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown.

The reverse face of 2021 1/10 oz British Platinum Britannia Coins includes Philip Nathan’s iconic, powerful image of Britannia. The female personification of Britain stands along the coast with a shield bearing the Union Jack in one hand to defend the nation. Ready for the fight, Britannia wears a Corinthian helmet on her head and wields a trident in her right hand to give her control over the seas.
