There was a quality control issue with the 2013 1/4 oz Britannia. My one looks as though it was hand stamped around the side as it had slightly distorted the coin.

Ok..the lettering is different between the years. The 2014 looks better, in these pictures anyway.

2013 was a difficult year for Britannia coins all around I think. Many have milk spotting. I'm pretty sure that was the transitional year from Britannia silver to .999 fine. And, yes, there was a special striking of shipwreck silver in 1/4 ounce coins for 2013 and 2014, but no other year or sizes.
