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. They were originally struck in 22 carat (.917) fineness, but from 2013 onwards they were struck in 24 carat (.9999) fineness.
Fractional ounce gold coins typically offer higher premiums than the full one ounce gold coins, due to the 1 oz 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.
The obverse shows Jody Clark's portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II.
The reverse bears the engraving of Britannia by Philip Nathan with the inscription:
