Other Information
Britannia gold coins are British bullion coins issued by The Royal Mint since 1987. Up until 2013 Britannia gold coins were produced in 22ct (0.917) the non-gold component being copper until 1989 and silver from 1990. As of 2013, Britannia gold coins have been produced in 24ct, a fineness of 999.9.
Only The Royal Mint has the trademark to produce genuine Britannia coins. Britannia is the feminine personification of Britain, she is renowned for her beauty and symbolises Britain's strength and integrity, and is an enduring icon that has been used in the UK for over 2,000 years.
The Britannia design created by Philip Nathan was first struck in 1987. From 2021, the coins feature four new groundbreaking security details. Incorporated into the background of the iconic design is a surface animation that reflects the flow of waves as it is moved and a new latent image switches between a trident or padlock dependent on the viewer’s perspective. A micro-text which borders the design and reads 'DECUS ET TUTAMEN', which translates to ‘An Ornament and a Safeguard’. The Union flag on Britannia’s shield have been specially highlighted with tincture lines.
