------------------------------------------------------------ New Coin Day ๐๐๐ -------------------------------------------------------------
Its been almost 3 months since I've posted anything on here but I'm back lol todays coin is a 1998 one ounce silver Britannia. I really like the two tone shiny and dull finish of this coin its kind of hard to see it on the pictures, I should hopefully have a couple more coins coming in the post from the Royal Mint any day now so will upload ASAP ๐.

Well 1998 Britannia, meet your ancestor the 1897 British Trade dollar with a few Chinese chop marks.
The New 2021 Britannia now has a few cool new security features compared with all the previous versions of Britannia. These new features further adds value to the Britannia series going forwards.

Wow love it, I'm hoping to start a date run of these but realise they went so far back ๐
I think the Silver Britannia Series started back in 1997.
The much older British Trade Dollar design was the inspiration for the Britannia connoting the familiar symbolic theme of International trade that fueled the power of the British empire.
You will find a lot variants in the newer Britannia series, many beautifully done including the smaller fractional coins.
I'm sure you will find it exciting to collect in the Britannia series, It's literally the new Trade Dollar.
The original Trade Dollar series are a lot tougher and much more expensive.
