The image gracing the back of the epic Britannia bullion coin marks its 30th anniversary in 2017. Sculptor Philip Nathan designed the classic icon of the British people in a Corinthian helmet, holding a trident and shield (bearing the United Kingdom’s Cross of St. George), as well as the olive branch of peace. Even more remarkable is that this symbol dates back 2,000 years to the time of the island nation’s conquest by the Romans. This enduring emblem is matched in the modern world by the unimpeachable investment and collection value offered by the Gold Britannia coin.

The coin depicts Britannia standing on a rock in the wind, the light of a radiating sun glowing behind her. The designer’s name (Nathan) is inscribed at her feet. The image is encircled by the words BRITANNIA 2017, 1 oz, and 999.9 FINE GOLD. The obverse displays the profile effigy of the British sovereign designed by Jody Clark and his initials appear below it. Her profile is surrounded by the coin’s legal tender value (100 POUNDS), ELIZABETH II, and D.G. REG. F.D. (for Dei Gratia Regina Fidei Defensor — Latin for By the grace of God, Queen, Defender of the Faith).

This is a beautifully crafted collection and investment item: one troy ounce of 24 carat gold, packaged in a capsule and available to you through Goldbroker.com
