The 1oz Britannia Gold Coin - Best Value, is a coin of the highest 999.9 purity, 24-carat and available to purchase online or in-store.

Whilst the 1oz Britannia Gold Coin - Best Value are technically classified as "pre-owned," this term understates the good condition of the items and very often these gold coins have been vaulted at Sharps Pixley on behalf of another client who has then decided to sell them back to us.

The first one-ounce gold coin in Britain was introduced in 1987 as a 22-carat coin, with a face value of £100. Since 2013, Britannia coins issued by the Royal Mint, are now made in 24-carat and 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.

Britannia appeared almost 2,000 years ago on Roman coins, then later on copper halfpennies and farthings of Charles II from 1672. Britannia continued to appear on bronze coins until decimalisation when she appeared on the fifty pence coins. Between 1901 and 1935, Britannia was portrayed standing on British Trade Dollars as well as on the florins of Edward VII from 1902 to 1910. The current design of the standing Britannia was created by the artist Philip Nathan. Her image has symbolized Britain's strength and integrity on coinage since the Roman times. The obverse features Ian Rank-Broadley's portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.

Today, the Gold Britannias are one of the most popular one-ounce gold coins for UK based private investors, as they are Capital Gains Tax Free (CGT Exempt). The 1oz Gold Britannia - Best Value, may come from any year of issue up to 2023, with one of our experts selecting the best available at the time of purchase and is delivered in our protective plastic flips.
