Britannias

Explore Gold Britannia coins from The Royal Mint. Choose from different sizes and years, and compare each coin's specifications and tax treatment.

The coins are struck in .9999 fine gold and are UK legal tender, with a face value that rises with the size — from ten pounds on a tenth-ounce coin to a hundred pounds on a full ounce. Because they are legal tender, they are free of Capital Gains Tax for UK residents as well as free of VAT.

Security features vary by year: the four features struck into the field were introduced on later issues and are not present on every date.
