Own a 2003 1oz silver proof Britannia from The Royal Mint, featuring a distinctive one-year-only design by sculptor Philip Nathan. This elegant composition shows a profile portrait of Britannia, facing left with a corinthian helmet pushed back on her head. Stylised wave patterns cross the portrait, representing Britannia's historic dominion over the seas. This striking interpretation is unique to 2003-dated proof Britannias, making this a key addition for series collectors. Struck in one troy ounce of .958 Britannia silver (total weight: 32.45 grams) and finished to The Royal Mint's exacting proof standard, it displays an appealing frosted finish. Records show that just 2,016 individually presented silver proof Britannias were released, and this pre-owned example comes in its original Royal Mint presentation case with certificate of authenticity.
