Half Ounce Silver Coins
Following the success of the Britannia one ounce silver bullion coins introduced in 1997, in 2011 The Royal Mint started to produce a half ounce silver Britannia coin with a face value of one pound (£1).
The silver Britannias are, quite appropriately, struck in Britannia silver, which is 958 parts per thousand silver, instead of the more usual sterling silver of 925 parts per thousand. Many other world silver coins, particularly those of American influence are struck in only 900 silver.
The concept of the half ounce bullion coin was to provide an easy way to purchase convenient small quantities of bullion silver in the form of coins.
Additionally, the new half ounce coins, are an attractive design, made to appeal to collectors.
The denomination, or face value, is one pound.
Supply
At the moment we are unable to order any of these coins from the Royal Mint, so will only be able to offer these for sale if we buy any on the secondary market.
