Can someone tell me where the 2016 Britannia Plain/Smooth Field 1 Ounce Silver Coins are being sold?

I read that it was part of The Royal Mint's 2015 Britannia One Ounce Brilliant Uncirculated coin package. Another way to ask the question is does the 2015 Britannia Brilliant Uncirculated set come only with a plain/smooth field? See the link below.

Here is information about the bullion version of the silver Britannia.

So as far as I know from 2015 onwards, the bullion one does not have the smooth finish.

Uncirculation and Proof ones should have a smooth finish.

To confuse matters even more, the proof has a different design.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply. So there appears to be 3 versions of the 2016 Britannia 1 ounce silver coin. The reason why I am asking is because I bought a 2015 Britannia - Brilliant Uncirculated coin with box and COA. The coin has a "textured" field. I was wondering if someone may have switched the coin.

Just wondering if someone can confirm the information below.

* Bullion version. This one has "textured" field.

* Brilliant Uncirculated, Comes with The Royal Mint box and COA. This one has the "plain" field.

* Proof version. Comes with a totally different design and has the proof finish.

I would be concerned since I thought starting in 2015 the bullion version had the textured surface so that folks could tell the difference between the more expensive uncirculated one from The Royal Mint since in 2014, it was not possible to tell the difference between the bullion and unciculated one.
