Gold Britannias

Gold bullion Britannia coins are the UK's most popular CGT exempt 1oz gold coin. Britannias were introduced by The Royal Mint in 1987. These British gold bullion coins have a face value of £100. Between 1987 - 2012, the coins were struck in 22 carat gold (0.9167 fineness); from 2013 onwards, the coins have been struck in 24 carat gold (0.9999 fineness). The coins all contain one troy ounce of gold, whether they are struck in 22 carat gold or 24 carat gold.

The Queen Elizabeth II coins will have a short production run, with a second bullion Britannia design being issued in the new year. The new coin will feature the King Charles III effigy, by Martin Jennings.

Obverse

The obverse showcases the fifth portrait of Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark. Additionally, the coin bears an inscription that reads as follows:

· ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 100 POUNDS ·

Reverse

The 2023 Britannias feature the classic 'standing Britannia' design by Philip Nathan.

The coins also feature the high-tech security features, introduced in 2021. These include a small latent image on the bottom-left. Acting as a hologram, it changes between a trident and a padlock, depending on the angle the coin is held.

A small micro-text border can be seen around Britannia. It says "DECUS ET TUTAMEN", which translates to “an ornament and a safeguard".

The field now features surface animation - micro-waves which create lines, showing a pattern in the background. Tincture lines have also been added to show colours and patterns on the metal.
