Pretty cool... I just ordered the 2007 Britannia from the Royal Mint. I like the look of the 2007 that has the lion on it. I didn't like the 2001 or the 2003. My favorite Britannia is the one that has her standing on the shore holding her trident. Simply awesome!
I'll withhold my usual dislike of modern coins for a moment. Brittanias are, in my opinion, the most beautiful coins being produced today. I only have the 2007 as of now, but I'll get more eventually. When the price of silver falls (if ever...)
