In 1987 the Royal Mint debuted the British Britannia Series with the introduction of the Gold Britannias. Ten years later the Silver Britannia coin was issued for the first time. The coin’s obverse features Queen Elizabeth II and the reverse depicts the figure of Britannia standing firm against a ferocious storm. In 2021, the design of the coin was enhanced with surface animation, a latent image, tincture lines and micro text to provide further protection. ![silver britannia coin reverse](https://www.monex.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/silver-britannia-reverse.png.webp) In 2022, Britannia, the symbol of Britain, leads the way to redefine security in the bullion market and embodies The Royal Mint’s drive for the very best in design and security. This latest evolution of the icon has four groundbreaking security features to create the most visually secure coin in the world.

Silver coins have great weight and volume for your investment dollars, which may present a storage challenge. Most people could not carry $25,000 of silver coins without a wheelbarrow, whereas that amount of gold could fit in the palm of your hand. For this reason, investors of silver coins should take into consideration where they will store their purchase, and is why investors purchasing larger quantities of silver tend to use a bank/depository storage facility. The silver coins most preferred for depository storage are the two most popular and liquid coins in the world, the [U.S. Silver American Eagle](https://www.monex.com/silver-american-eagle-coins-for-sale/) and the Royal Canadian Mint’s [Silver Maple Leaf](https://www.monex.com/canadian-silver-maple-leaf-coins-for-sale/).

All shipments of silver products to you are insured against loss or damage in transit. If you decide to have your silver delivered to and stored by a bank/depository, the metal is fully insured in transit and also while in storage. ### How long will it take to receive my silver?

On average, physical metal will leave the shipping facility two to five days after confirmed, reliable good funds are received. Upon receipt of payment and confirmation of reliable good funds, Monex will direct one of its independent shipping facilities to package and assign it to either USPS or UPS for delivery. You will then receive an email or a telephone notification of your shipment’s tracking number. During periods of extremely high shipping volume, you will be notified if any delays are anticipated.
