OUR STORY
Background To British Pobjoy Mint
The Pobjoy family has been associated with fine metalwork since the Middle Ages. The Company was recently granted permission to use the family Coat of Arms in which the Medieval Popinjay is the central motif. The Popinjay was a painted wooden parrot used in archery contests in the 14th century and the name Pobjoy is derived from this.

Fittingly the Shackleton family’s motto reads ‘Fortitudine vincimus’. By endurance we conquer.
