2017 Britannia Coins

The 2017 Britannia Coin series represents one of the most important milestone issues in The Royal Mint’s Britannia programme, celebrating both the 30th anniversary of the gold Britannia (1987–2017) and the 20th anniversary of the silver Britannia (1997–2017). This dual anniversary year features an extensive range of gold, silver, and platinum Britannia coins, making it one of the most diverse and collectible modern releases.

Struck in 24-carat gold (.9999 fine), the 2017 Britannia gold coins continue the modern pure gold standard introduced in 2013, while the 1oz silver Britannia coins in .999 fine silver feature a special commemorative design by Louis Tamlyn, marking the anniversary celebrations with a distinctive artistic interpretation of Britannia.

This category includes a full selection of 2017 Britannia Coins, covering gold proof sets, silver bullion and proof issues, platinum editions, large-format commemorative coins, and certified graded examples.

The 2017 issue is particularly notable for its anniversary-focused design programme, created by artist Louis Tamlyn, whose modern interpretation of Britannia features symbolic elements representing strength, heritage, and national identity. Many coins also include a special trident mint mark celebrating 20 years of silver Britannia coinage.

The silver Britannia range for 2017 is especially significant, as it marks the 20th anniversary of silver Britannia coinage, with many releases featuring a special “20” trident privy mark and commemorative design elements by Louis Tamlyn.

As a major dual-anniversary Britannia issue, the 2017 Britannia remains highly desirable among collectors building full date runs, with strong demand across all formats—particularly silver proof sets, large-format commemorative coins, and low-mintage gold issues in certified condition.
