Unboxing part 2...
Sorry steemsilvergold members, I got in late last night and didn’t get a chance to post the second part of my unboxing yesterday. Well here it is....
The first coin is the 2017 20th Anniversary Silver Britannia coin. This is the first ever year that the Britannia has a mint mark which is a trident. There is a unique security feature within the trident which is the number 20. There is limited mintage of 120,000 coins. The coin comes directly from the mint in a capsule.
The second is also a Royal Mint strike which is the 2018 Silver Oriental Border Britannia. This is very intriguing design and has a limited mintage of 100,000 coins. This is a very low mintage for a bullion strike coin and should perform well going forward. The design was inspired by the trade dollar but features modern elements. This coin also comes in a capsule direct from the mint.
Both of these coins are struck very well and have great detail. I do like the oriental border one more and will probably be adding more of them to my stack shortly.
Thank you for viewing

Hiya, i really like the Oriental border. I have one on order, but after seeing your pics and being reminded of stats — plus it’s in a capsule straight from the mint, i’m thinking i may have to get a few more of these. Really good coin pics!
😁👍
Hey buddy. They are even better in person, very impressed with them. There will be more ordered by me soon. Thanks, it’s rough with a phone but i do my best. You’ll be very happy with it. Cheers🍺
The brittania is always a nice coin and the oriental border on this coin is a nice touch, what I like about it is the radiating lines behind brittania and the swirl pattern behind Lizzy.
It sure is. I should have a nice unboxing sometime this week with a bunch. They have come a long way with the quality and design of this coin. I love it. Cheers🍺
I gotta’ agree with you re: obverse pattern
🤩👍
No doubt. It’s fantastic....🍺
The new britanias are nice with that border! Nice buys
Thanks buddy, you need to pick some up, much better in person!!! Cheers🍺
