The ¼ troy ounce silver Britannia coins are minted by The Royal Mint and each contain 7.77 grams of 99.9% pure silver.
In 1987, sculptor Philip Nathan created an iconic incarnation of Britannia for a new bullion coin from The Royal Mint. The design is both bold and beautiful, presented with specifically chosen symbols that represent and reflect the nation. The design shows a shield for protection, an olive branch for peace and a trident to represent seafaring.
Several security features have been added on the Britannia coins to make counterfeiting even more difficult. The coin includes the following security features:
- Radial lines in the background of the design
- The microtext that frames the design reading "DECUS ET TUTAMEN," which translates as "an ornament and a security"
- The trident that turns into a padlock when the viewer changes their perspective on the coin
- Tincture lines within the stripes of the Union Jack
The ¼ troy ounce silver Britannia coin has a face value of 50 cents in its country of origin. The coin has a diameter of 22 millimeters and is sold per 19 pieces in a tube. A full sample box contains 380 coins, or 20 tubes.
