Issued as part of the Royal Mint's Britannia bullion series in fractional silver, this piece sits at the extreme low end of modern British silver coinage by mass — 0.8 grams is less than a standard paper clip. The fifth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Jody Clark, was introduced in 2015 and appeared on circulating and bullion coinage through her death in September 2022, making pieces dated that year transitional in a strictly terminal sense.
