Britannia

[TomGoodheart 373]

Here she is all proud and regal

And just 60 years later and she looks like she's sick of holding that olive branch and is just hoping someone will take it off her!

I think that's the fun of here. Exchanging ideas and knowledge is good, but it's also nice to let others know when we see something that might be of interest.

Particularly when it's not a series we ourselves collect.

Is there any significance to the direction in which Britannia faces?

I don't think so. She always faced to our left, but then switched to right facing after the Great Recoinage of 1816, and has done ever since I believe.
