Expert Opinion
The 1oz Silver Britannia is one of the most popular silver coins globally – and for good reason. It combines:
- Low premiums compared to smaller denominations.
- Mass production, keeping costs competitive.
- Long-term collectability thanks to The Royal Mint’s artistry and heritage.
Investors often buy in bulk (tubes or monster boxes) to reduce premiums further, while collectors value the artistry and evolving symbolism of Britannia herself. With silver prices still comparatively undervalued against gold, the 2026 issue represents both affordability and growth potential.
