Britannia has long represented the spirit and strength of Britain. Her story dates back to the Roman occupation of the British Isles in the 1st century CE, where she first appeared as a warrior figure carrying a spear and shield. The first Roman coins to show her image came under Emperor Hadrian around 119 CE. BGASC now offers 3 oz Antique Finish Britannia Silver Statues for purchase.

Design

This 3 oz Antique Finish Britannia Silver Statue features Britannia in a traditional pose. Her garments appear to blow in the wind, and she stands holding a trident in her right hand. Her left arm leans on a shield decorated with the Union Jack, and she also holds an olive branchrepresenting both peace and strength.

History

During the Victorian era and well into the 20th century, Britannia became more closely tied to symbols of the British Empire. She was often portrayed in flowing robes, wearing a Corinthian-style helmet, and surrounded by elements that reflected the reach and influence of Britain. Her image became especially common in times of national struggle, such as the World Wars, representing the spirit of the people.
