The Cutty Sark, one of the most famous British clipper ships, was launched in 1869 and quickly became a symbol of the golden age of sail. Designed for speed, the Cutty Sark was built to transport tea from China to Britain and later shifted to carrying wool from Australia. Renowned for its sleek design and impressive sailing capabilities, the ship held several speed records during its prime. After retiring from active service, the Cutty Sark was preserved as a museum ship in Greenwich, London, where it stands today as a testament to maritime history and 19th-century shipbuilding innovation. Its legacy continues to attract visitors from around the world, making it an iconic piece of nautical heritage.

The Nautical Ounce series has become a favourite among collectors around the world, known for its limited mintages.
