2013 Great Britain 1-oz Silver Britannia Proof coin

2013 Great Britain 1-oz Silver Britannia Proof

 Product Description:

First-Ever Pure Silver Britannia

Britain's Royal Mint has been striking their popular Silver Britannia coins since 1997. But this 2013 Britain One-Ounce Silver Britannia Proof is the first time the popular coin has been struck in 99.9% silver. Each is 31.21 grams and is the size of a Morgan Silver Dollar, but has more silver. It's a legal-tender British coin of the realm with a £2 (two Pound) face value. To celebrate the change in silver purity, the Royal Mint created a new one-year-only design, featuring Britannia seated and robed in classical style, with her head turned to listen to those outside Britain, a symbol of wisdom which is reinforced by the owl seated in her lap. And it's a wise collector indeed who snaps up these one-ounce Silver Britannia Proofs when they are issued. Why? Because with an almost unheard-of mintage for a major country, the Royal Mint is striking only 8,500 of these dazzling proofs for worldwide distribution! It's a great opportunity we can bring to you because of our long-standing relationship with the mint. Take advantage, and order yours now! Each comes in official Royal Mint packaging.
