Britannia 1 oz Gold Random Year
The gold bullion coin featuring the personification of Great Britain is one of the most recognizable investment products in the world. This highly valued coin is minted from pure 9999 gold and weighs one troy ounce. Produced by the renowned British mint, The Royal Mint, Britannia is legal tender and carries the guarantee of the UK government regarding its legality, metal purity, and origin. Notably, it was the first European investment coin, introduced in 1987.
Gold Britannia coins produced between 1987 and 2012 were struck in 22-karat gold with other metal alloys. From 1987 to 1989, the coins contained a small amount of copper, which increased their scratch resistance and gave them a distinctive color. From 1989 to 2012, the copper was replaced with silver, which provided similar strengthening properties and influenced the coin's unique hue.
Currently, gold bullion coins featuring Britannia are struck from 24-karat gold with a fineness of 9999. Their classic design and high investment liquidity make them an excellent addition to any investment portfolio.
The obverse of the coin is modified every odd-numbered year of issue. It features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a crown, along with the coin's face value.
The reverse depicts the traditional figure of Britannia, armed with a trident and shield. It also includes information about the gold's purity and weight.
