The 2021 St. Helena Seated Britannia is inspired by the British trade dollars which were in circulation from 1895 through 1935. The classic Seated Britannia design has long been a symbol of British strength.
The Seated Britannia coin is struck in 1.25 troy oz of .999 fine silver by the famed East India Company. Both sides of the coin feature the East India Company’s repeating pattern design in the backfield.
The coin’s obverse is graced with the third effigy of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. The portrait designed by famed artist Raphael Maklouf in 1984 depicts the Queen wearing the diamond diadem. The reverse features the iconic image of Britannia seated alongside her shield.
Beautifully designed, the 2021 St. Helena Seated Britannia is absolutely remarkable. Each coin arrives in pristine condition housed in a new direct-fit capsule.
