As in previous years, the silver proof Britannia features a different design to the bullion coin. The coin shows Britannia with a shield and trident, standing in front of a lion.
The reverse was designed by Suzie Zamit, the first female Britannia designer.
The trident that Britannia holds is meant to symbolise strength and control, whilst the shield represents security. The sea is visible in the background.
The obverse of the coin features the fifth effigy portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, by Jody Clark.
The 2016 one ounce silver proof Britannia is struck from 0.999 fine silver. It has a face value of £2 and contains one troy ounce of silver.
The 1oz coins have a limited presentation of just 4,150 coins.
