2022 Guernsey – Roman Britain Hadrian’s Wall £2 BU Set

Description

They came, they saw, they conquered. The Roman occupation of Britain still provides us with fascinating treasures. Coins, mosaics, artefacts — and of course their famous buildings and structures — perhaps most famously, Hadrian’s Wall.

Now, to celebrate the fascinating Roman history in Britain on the anniversary of Hadrian’s Wall, a BRAND NEW set of British Isles £2 coins have been released.

Each design features depictions of some of the key members of the Roman Empire, including Emperor Hadrian, who’s wall carries his namesake, General Julius Agricola who governed Britannia during the initial Roman settlement, Severus Septimius who led a campaign to defeat the Scots after many rebellions and the Roman soldiers and Pict Warriors.

And each coin has been struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated quality, meaning you won’t find any scratches or marks that you would usually find or circulating coinage.

And importantly for collectors, only 750 of these special sets are being released. It’s unusual to see a Brilliant Uncirculated coin issued with an edition limit, let alone an edition limit as low as this. So you’ll need to be quick to secure yours.
