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. This long history has seen gold nobles, angels, crowns, unites and guineas sovereigns come and go but in the midst of all the political and economic changes throughout the centuries, a gold coinage has largely been retained.

The most recent addition came in 1987 with the introduction of a new gold coin grounded in the traditions of great designs, quality of manufacture, integrity and dignity. Deliberately conceived to compete in the gold markets of the modern world, it was given a face value of £100, making it the highest denomination coin of the realm, and contained a full ounce of fine gold. Its companion pieces, coins of £50, £25 and £10, contained a half-ounce, a quarter-ounce and tenth-ounce of gold respectively and, since all four were to be immediately recognisable as British, they each bore the famous figure from which the coins have taken their name? Britannia.

For the new gold coins of 1987 Philip Nathan submitted several designs as possibilities for the reverses including one which he felt appropriately linked Britannia with Boudicca, the beautiful warrior queen who inspired her people to rise up against their harsh Roman rulers.

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 only time it has previously featured on the gold Britannia family. 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 horse-drawn chariot as she races along the shore. Philip Nathan’s Boudicca-like Britannia has been chosen for the Britannia family of 2009 and, like the coins of 1997, Britannia’s portrait is framed with the ornate romanesque-style crenellated border peculiar to Britannia coins.
