2026 SILVER BRITANNIA PROOF FEATURES FIRST-EVER AMERICAN DESIGN
Great Britain’s Britannia Proof coins received an infusion of American artistry in 2026 with a release featuring a design by American artist Emily Damstra. No small feat, it’s the FIRST TIME that an American has created the design for Great Britain’s official, annual Proof Britannia release and one of the few times an American has designed a British coin.
EMILY DAMSTRA’S REGAL PROFILE OF BRAVE BRITANNIA
Struck in one ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, Damstra’s new, one-year-only reverse design for the 2026 Britannia Proof shows an elegant profile of the national personification of Great Britain with flowing hair standing firm against rolling seas. She’s also shown wearing a classical Corinthian helmet, embodying vigilance, continuity, and quiet authority. As the designer of more than 40 U.S. and Canadian coins and medals, including the reverse of the Type II American Silver Eagle, Damstra has gained significant recognition in numismatic circles all over the world. Over the course of her illustrious career, Damstra has earned a reputation for creating hyper-detailed depictions of natural wildlife.
ONE-YEAR-ONLY BRITANNIA PROOF SERIES
Great Britain’s Royal Mint introduced its premier Gold Britannia bullion series in 1987 and followed it up 10 years later with the Silver Britannia series in 1997. Today, Britannia coins are among the premier names in precious metal coinage. And while the bullion edition of the Britannia has kept its same design since 2013, each year brings an exciting new design to the Britannia Proof releases.

Each 2026 Britannia One-Ounce Silver Proof available in this offer is £2 (two pounds) legal tender in the United Kingdom.
