2022 Britannia gold proof £200 celebration of womanhood, Two ounce coin.

MAXIMUM COIN MINTAGE: 106

Contains two Troy ounces of 999.9 fine gold. (62.42 grams).

Britannia as a symbol - the female personification of Great Britain - has been depicted on British coinage for centuries. The bullion series called Britannia has been issued in gold since 1987 and in silver since 1997; it has a "definitive" depiction - used on bullion coins (Brilliant Uncirculated grade), as well as “Britannia, the Changing Face of Britain” - a series of one-year design used on proofs made for collectors. In 2022, the Royal Mint also added this Celebration of Womanhood design to the series.

The Mint says about it:
"The exclusive editions of our Britannia coin return in 2022 with a beautiful design by the Italian artist and sculptor Sandra Deiana, who brings together three female figures representing the stages of womanhood.

For centuries, we have been making waves on UK coins, working with the most innovative artists of each age to re-imagine Britannia’s story for every new generation. In 2022, we are proud to release a new, exclusive design created by the talented Italian artist and sculptor Sandra Deiana. This is Sandra’s first collaboration with The Royal Mint and her vibrant, future-facing image portrays not one, but three female figures on the reverse of a Britannia coin for the first time. Skilled in traditional coin-making disciplines, Sandra created the coin relief for her Britannia design in clay. Then, state-of-the-art technology brought her vision to life, resulting in a worthy addition for collectors and investors."

The reverse shows three women facing right. At centre is the standing figure of Britannia, the female personification of Great Britain; she wears lamellar armour and a crested Corinthian helmet, pushed back to reveal her face. On the left, an older woman. On the right, a young girl with a laurel wreath in her hair.

Around above left, the inscription BRITANNIA 2022. Around above right, the precious metal content: 2 OZ 999.9 FINE GOLD (two troy ounces of 99.99% gold). The face value is on the obverse.

The artist's signature SD (for Sandra Deiana) are on the older woman's shoulder, below the B in BRITANNIA.
