Design of the 2024 British Britannia Gold Coin:
The 2024 1 Ounce British Britannia Gold Coins, also known as the King Charles Edition, are the newest edition to the Britannia series. These coins are crafted with the utmost precision and each has a face value of 100 Pounds Sterling.
On the front side of the coin is a prominent portrait of King Charles III at its center. Surrounding the King's likeness are inscriptions denoting the coin's face value of 100 Pounds Sterling and the words 'Charles III'.
Flipping the coin reveals the iconic reverse design featuring Lady Britannia. She stands gracefully on the shores of Britain, holding a trident in one hand and a shield in the other. Her shield proudly displays an image of the Union Jack. This depiction symbolizes her role as a guardian and protector of the country. Encircling her image are markings indicating the coin's purity level of 9999, its 1-ounce size, and the words 'British Britannia'. Notably, the design of Lady Britannia is attributed to Philip Nathan, while King Charles III's portrait was crafted by Martin Jennings.
Who is Lady Britannia?
The concept of Lady Britannia dates back to the Roman Empire, during which she made her debut on coinage when Britain was part of the empire. Over the past four centuries, Lady Britannia has graced various coins, with her sole appearance today being in the Britannia series, available in gold, silver, and platinum.
The Britannia coin series made its gold debut in 1986, offering various size options, including 1/10 ounce, ¼ ounce, ½ ounce, and the 1-ounce variant. Responding to its popularity, the series expanded to include a silver Britannia in 1996 and a platinum Britannia in 2016. The silver version is available in 1-ounce and ½ ounce sizes, while the platinum Britannia comes in 1-ounce and 1/10 ounce sizes. Collectors and investors can buy Britannia gold coins individually or in wholesale lots of 10 coins.
The widespread acclaim for the Britannia series led to the Royal Mint's introduction of the Britannia Bar series, featuring gold, silver, and platinum bars, all adorned with the iconic image of Lady Britannia.
