Who is Britannia?

Britannia is the ancient personification of the British Isles, originally derived from the Latin name used by the Romans for their distant province. In the 2nd century, she emerged as a goddess figure, depicted with a trident, shield, and Corinthian helmet – embodying courage, strength, and the rule of the seas.

Her image disappeared from coins after the Roman withdrawal in the 5th century but reappeared in 1672 under King Charles II. Since then, Britannia has been reinterpreted by artists to reflect the spirit of each era.

Design by Jody Clark

The design of this bar is the work of Jody Clark, famed as the youngest artist to have portrayed Queen Elizabeth II for The Royal Mint. His interpretation shows Britannia as a graceful yet powerful figure, clad in chainmail, holding a trident in her left hand and a shield in her right. Her plumed helmet tilts back to reveal flowing hair and a determined expression – a modern yet classic vision of the icon.
