Gold Britannia Coins
The image of Britannia once adorned the coins of Roman Emperors and it has featured on the coinage of every British monarch since the 17th century. Philip Nathan’s classical design portrays Britannia as the female warrior and protector of the British shores, standing above the waves with trident, shield and olive branch in hand. She has come to embody the national identity of the United Kingdom; a symbol of strength, peace and protection.
The status of the Britannia gold coin as British legal tender means they are exempt from Capital Gains Tax, and as such they are one of the most sought-after investment coins with UK investors and collectors. The one-ounce gold Britannia coin has a face value of £100. They are also issued in fractional sizes of one-half, one-quarter, and one-tenth of a troy ounce, with face values of £50, £25, and £10 respectively.
In an era where financial security is paramount, the Britannia gold coin serves as a trusted vehicle for preserving wealth and hedging against economic uncertainty. Its status as a tax-free asset underscores its importance in the realm of gold investments, providing peace of mind to those seeking stability in their financial futures.
