A gold bar from the Royal Mint for the first time with an image of Britannia. Purchasing this 1 ounce investment gold bar can be a great way to invest your capital and diversify your investment portfolio. Britannia has for centuries been the personification of Britain, depicted as a female figure with a round shield and spear. The image was introduced on English coins in the 17th century during the reign of Charles II, but the way the figure and its attributes are framed indicates that it must have been based on a Roman original.This gold bullion bar could be a real attraction for many investors. It is produced from high-grade gold (9999) by the Royal British Mint and weighs 1 troy ounce. Each bar has a unique serial number. The Royal Mint is one of Europe's oldest mints, producing coins and orders for around 60 countries around the world and has exclusive rights to produce pounds and national medals in the UK. It also issues many commemorative coins, both bullion and collector coins. Recent editions include a silver coin to mark the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's reign, a series of coins to mark the London Olympics or the 'Celebration of Britain' series, which symbolically presents Britain in flesh, spirit and mind.
