The 2018 1oz Silver Britannia Special Edition Coin — Oriental Border is struck by The Royal Mint from one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. It uses the Oriental Border treatment, framing the Britannia design with an ornate border inspired by East Asian decorative motifs.
The coin retains Britannia as the central design subject, while the obverse carries the monarch portrait used for the year of issue. The special edition treatment gives the coin a separate identity from the standard bullion release.
The Oriental Border issues are popular with collectors because they form a small themed sub-set within the wider Silver Britannia range.
