Description

The Britannia gold bullion coin is a leading investment product that is well known and appreciated by merchants around the world. The one-ounce Britannia is a coin that is minted from pure 9999 fine gold by Europe’s renowned mint, The Royal Mint. The Britannia, which has been well-known for many years, has been enhanced from 2021 with new and innovative security features.The security features introduced are: – A radiant background, which was created by using a picosecond laser. The effect of the applied laser is visible when the coin is rotated.

– Engraved security using an angular effect, where the image changes from a padlock to a trident.

– Application of the plaster technique (on the dial). The tyncture technique consists of indicating heraldic colours by means of symbols – lines. – The micro-engraved inscription “DECUS ET TUTAMEN”, which was made using specialised lasers and which is located above the head of the titular Britannia.

It is also worth mentioning that Britannia is the first European investment coin, which was introduced into circulation in 1987.The first copies, which were produced between 1987 and 2012, were struck from 22-carat gold with an admixture of other metals. From 1987 to 1989, Britannas were enhanced with a small admixture of copper, which made the coins more scratch-resistant and also made them stand out for their peculiar colour. From 1989 to 2012, copper was replaced by silver, which, as with copper, was designed to strengthen the coin and give it a unique colour. Since 2012, Britannia has been minted exclusively in 24-karat gold. The Averse depicts King Charles III of Great Britain, based on a design by Martin Jennings. You can also find information on the face value of the coin.The Rewers depicts the traditional figure of Britannia, armed with a trident and shield. The reverse depicts the traditional Britannia figure armed with a trident and shield, as well as new security features and information about the purity and purity of the gold.
