Britannia - motiv s tradicí dvou tisíciletí.
První mince s tímto motivem razil již římský císař Claudius 46 let před naším letopočtem. Na mincích najdeme nápis  "DE BRITAN", "DE BRITANN", "DE BRITANNI", nebo "DE BRITANNIS". První mince obsahovaly vyobrazení mužské postavy dnes je však Británie zpodobňována jako žena. Za vlády Karla II - 1672 kdy se Británie na mince vrátila převažoval  motiv sedící postavy. V letech 1901 až 1930 se objevil nový motiv stojící Británie. Autorem současných mincí je sochař Philip Nathan. Zda bude Británie i na Euro mincích není ještě  rozhodnuto.

Z představení nových mincí vydavatelem :
"For more than 600 years gold coins have been part of the British currency, enjoying a popularity which has seen them circulate far beyond the shores of Britain. The most recent addition came in 1987 with the introduction of a new gold coin deliberately conceived to compete in the gold markets of the modern world. For the reverses of the new coins Philip Nathan submitted several designs as possibilities including one which he felt appropriately linked Britannia with Boudicca.

He was asked to adapt this particular design for the coins of 1997, the 10th Anniversary of the introduction of the gold Britannia coins and the year that the silver Proof Britannia family made its debut. A dynamic portrayal of Britannia which emphasises her strength and long association with the sea, it features the majestic figure of Britannia standing proud in her chariot as, drawn by two mighty horses, she races along the seashore.

The four beautiful silver coins, the £2, £1, 50p and 20p coins, have been struck in Britannia silver, an alloy of silver containing 95.8% silver and the rest of copper. The Britannia standard of silver was introduced as part of the recoinage of William III in 1696 in an attempt to limit the clipping and melting of sterling silver coinage, it being reasoned that there would be less incentive to melt sterling silver when a higher standard was used for ‘wrought plate’.

In 1697 Britannia silver became the obligatory standard for items of plate’ and the lion passant guardant hallmark was replaced with ‘the figure of a woman commonly called Britannia’. Sterling silver was approved again for use by silversmiths in 1720 with Britannia silver remaining optional. All four silver coins are therefore struck in Britannia silver and all four bear Philip Nathan’s Boudicca-like Britannia on the reverse framed by the ornate romanesque-style crenellated border peculiar to Britannia coins."
