2009 Britannias feature a reverse previously used in 1999, created by Philip Nathan and showing Britannia driving a chariot pulled by two horses. 'BRITANNIA' is shown below with 'ONE · OUNCE · FINE · SILVER · 2009' above.
Ian Rank-Broadley's fourth definitive coin portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is shown on the obverse, with the face value - '2 · POUNDS' - below and an inscription that reads '· ELIZABETH · II · D · G REG · FID · DEF ·' around.
These UK Two Pound coins are struck in one troy ounce of .958 Britannia silver, rather than the 999 silver used for later issues, meaning they are somewhat heavier. This is a bullion strike with a uniform high-shine appearance.
Records indicate that the maximum mintage set for silver bullion Britannias in 2009 by The Royal Mint was 100,000 coins. It is likely that somewhat fewer were issued, and we can confirm that few can be found in this presentation.
You will receive this pre-owned one-ounce coin in its original Royal Mint packaging, which includes a gift box and a card with a built-in capsule that protects the coin's bullion finish and facilitates long-term safe storage.
