Gold Britannias

Gold Britannia coins were first issued in 1987 as a British alternative to popular bullion coins such as Krugerrands and Maples. In one ounce, half ounce, quarter ounce, and tenth ounce sizes, the new Britannia bullion coins had a face value of £100, £50, £25, and £10 each respectively.

Small Gold Coins

Fractional ounce gold coins typically offer higher premiums than the full one ounce gold coins, due to the 1oz coins being popular as an investment gold product. Few bullion houses deal with fractional ounce coins due to the fact that smaller coins tend to be bought in singles, so do not want the bother of handling small quantities of low value coins.

Obverse

The obverse bears the third definitive UK coin portrait by Raphael Maklouf.

Reverse

The reverse bears the engraving of Britannia by Philip Nathan with the inscription:

BRITANNIA 1/4 OUNCE FINE GOLD 1989
