Represented in various forms of art, literature, and propaganda, Britannia served as a guardian and protector, reinforcing the notion of British imperial might.

The reverse side, on the other hand, presents the full-length figure of Britannia, looking to her right, trident in hand, and an olive branch and Union Jack shield at her side. This iconic image, created by Philip Nathan in 1987, has graced the silver, gold, and platinum versions of the Britannia bullion coins, symbolizing Britain’s enduring strength and stability.
