<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4786885, member: 110350"]Thanks for this; I was hopeful that someone might have an original Britannia to show, but wasn't really expecting it. I would guess that coins depicting Britannia are probably the most coveted and most expensive of all Roman geographic personifications, for pretty obvious reasons. I don't remember exactly when the personification of Britannia was revived on British coinage; off the top of my head, the earliest British coins I have with Britannia on the reverse are a couple of Charles II farthings from the 1670s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
