The Year of the Dog is probably Britain's favourite lunar coin. British lunar coins are a great alternative to Britannias. Struck in 999 silver, these one ounce coins are a popular choice for investors looking for quality silver bullion at low premiums above the spot price of silver. These lunar coins have the added advantage of being exempt from Capital Gains Tax, making them particularly attractive for investors resident in the United Kingdom.
