History

While the modern Britannia design was only introduced in 1987, the female personification of Britain has appeared on British coinage for nearly 2,000 years. Following the Roman conquest of the British Isles, it became standard for Roman British coinage to feature the image of Britannia, the goddess associated with their victory. Some of the first of these coins were produced in the second century. They were known as the bronze Sestertius and Siliqua and contained a full-profile depiction of Britannia on the reverse sides.
