Britannia has graced Britain’s coins since Roman times and is one of the most enduring female icons of our nation.
On International Women’s Day, we are delighted to unveil an original new design that champions women of all ages as equal.
This beautiful new design reflects The Royal Mint’s own commitment to diversity and equality, ensuring women can prosper in all areas of our business and see themselves on the nation’s coins.
Who is Britannia?
Britannia is a female warrior who symbolises Britain.
Britannia first appeared on UK coins around 2,000 years ago under the rule of Emperor Hadrian.
The Romans depicted Britannia as a strong female – a symbol that has endured and continues to grace the nation’s coins today on the circulating £2 and commemorative designs.
