Description

In 2027, two island identities meet again on a single canvas of fine silver, the resulting production that speaks of heritage, craftsmanship, and a shared maritime spirit. The 2027 1 oz Great Britain Britannia – International Privy Hong Kong .999 Silver BU Coin brings together Philip Nathan’s timeless Britannia and a privy mark honouring Hong Kong’s iconic junk boat — a recognised symbol of the region’s maritime heritage.

Britannia has graced British coins for centuries, her iconography evolving to reflect the nation she represents. In 1987, sculptor Philip Nathan created a stunning vision of Britannia for a new bullion coin — a classically inspired interpretation featuring carefully chosen symbols: a shield for protection, an olive branch for peace, and a trident for her connection with the sea. This Hong Kong exclusive edition pairs that classic depiction with a special privy mark in the form of the iconic Hong Kong junk boat, uniting two national symbols on one 1 oz silver canvas. Struck exclusively for the Hong Kong bullion market, it is a rare and collectable piece for discerning collectors.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Britannia silver bullion coin, each 2027 silver bullion coin in this range also features a ’30’ wave privy mark. As The Royal Mint is a leader in bullion security, the Britannia bullion coin was enhanced with four visual security features that also make authentication and liquidation seamless for investors.

From the waves beneath Britannia’s feet to the junk boat that sails across the privy mark, this Hong Kong exclusive silver coin is more than a striking piece of fine silver coin — it is a meeting of two maritime traditions, struck by The Royal Mint and destined for collectors who value the stories that coins can carry.
