Silver Quarter Ounce 2024 Britannia, Proof, Coin from United Kingdom - detailed information
| ||||||||||||
Britannia coins are British bullion coins issued by the Royal Mint in gold since 1987 and in silver since 1997. The original Britannia silver coins contain one troy ounce (1 oz) of silver and have a face value of £2. Silver Britannias are also issued in fractional sizes of one-half, one-quarter, one-tenth, 1/20th and 1/40th of a troy ounce and with face values of £1, 50p, 20p, 10p and 5p respectively (that is, the quarter ounce silver piece is officially denominated as 50 pence). There is also a five-ounce coin of face value £10. Britannia as a symbol - the female personification of Great Britain - has been depicted on British coinage for centuries. The bullion series called Britannia has been issued in gold since 1987 and in silver since 1997; it has a "definitive" depiction - used on bullion coins (Brilliant Uncirculated grade), as well as “Britannia, the Changing Face of Britain” - a series of one-year designs used on proofs made for collectors, such as this one. The mint says about it: French artist Marie-Alice Harel, an award-winning author and illustrator, has created a modern interpretation of Britannia for this 2024-dated coin. | ||||||||||||

| Details | Somewhat confusingly named, this variety (also know as "Reverse Proof") is actually "inverse frosted" - that is, the areas that are normally frosted (on both the obverse and the reverse) are mirror-like surfaces on it, and those that are normally mirror-like are frosted. | |
