Description
For centuries, Britannia has symbolized the essence of the nation, embodying its evolving strengths and characteristics. Sculptor Philip Nathan’s interpretation of Britannia in 1987 introduced a new bullion coin that captured her naval connections and peaceful spirit through the trident and olive branch. This design has become a modern classic, renowned for its groundbreaking security features. The coin showcases surface animation, mimicking flowing waves when moved, and micro-text with the words ‘Decus et Tutamen’ (meaning ‘An ornament and a safeguard’) subtly integrated into the design. Additionally, a latent feature shifts between a trident and a padlock, emphasizing maritime strength and enhanced security. Notably, tincture lines highlight details like the Union flag on Britannia’s shield. These advanced features combine to create a visually stunning and highly secure Britannia coin, making it the most secure coin worldwide.
