The Royal Mint
Ten Britannias in a coin tube.
Philip Nathan’s Britannia
The sculptor created her for a new bullion coin from The Royal Mint. Today’s gold Britannia bears his design as well.
She wears a Corinthian helmet with a high crest, while her hair and robes flow to the left.
The trident
She holds it with her arm outstretched. It stands for her connection with the sea.
The shield
It bears the Union Flag and stands for protection.
The olive branch
She holds it above the shield. It stands for peace.

Four features you can see in the light
Turn the coin in the light and you can check that it is genuine. According to The Royal Mint, this makes the Britannia one of the most visually secure bullion coins in the world.
The latent image
At the bottom left, below the robes, it alternates between a trident and a padlock depending on the viewing angle.
The micro-text
DECUS ET TUTAMEN, an ornament and a safeguard, runs around the figure. The words already appeared on the edge of English coins in the 17th century.
The waves
When the coin is turned, waves seem to move behind the figure.
The lines in the shield
Fine, smooth lines trace the light and dark tones of the flag.
200 times narrower than a hair
According to The Royal Mint, this is how narrow the indentations are that a picosecond laser makes for the waves.
From Hadrian to Charles III
around119
On Roman coins
Under Emperor Hadrian, Britannia appears on a coin for the first time: a woman on rocks, with a spear and a shield, and below her the word BRITANNIA.
1672
Back on English coins
She returns on England’s first official copper coins, the halfpenny and the farthing, under Charles II. Tradition has it that Frances Stuart, a lady of the court, sat as her model.
1987
The Britannia in gold
Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson approves a new 100-pound gold coin. It is named after Britannia and initially struck in 22-carat gold.
2013
In 24-carat gold
Since then, the gold Britannia has been struck in 24-carat gold.
2023
The King’s portrait
According to The Royal Mint, the 2023 Britannia is the world’s first bullion coin to bear the official portrait of King Charles III. The sculptor Martin Jennings called it his smallest work.
The Royal Mint in Wales
Since 1975, The Royal Mint has struck coins only in Llantrisant in South Wales. Queen Elizabeth II had opened the first phase of the site on 17 December 1968.
By its own account, it looks back on a history of more than 1,100 years.
Every year, an independent jury tests the weight and fineness of its coins at Goldsmiths’ Hall in London, during the Trial of the Pyx.
“Steadfast in the eye of the storm.”
This is how The Royal Mint describes its Britannia.
In fine gold.

Ten ounces of pure gold in a single tube. What a sight. What a feeling. This investor package combines ten Brilliant Uncirculated gold coins of the 2026 year of issue in the Royal Mint's original coin tube – offering one of the most elegant ways to make a substantial investment in physical precious metal.
The Britannia Design: Timeless Symbolism in Purest Gold
The reverse of each individual coin features the world-famous Britannia design, created by artist Philip Nathan. The female figure strides majestically to the left, her flowing robes caught by the wind, the trident held firmly in her right hand. Her left arm rests on a shield bearing the Union Jack – an unmistakable symbol of British identity and strength. At her feet, waves break against rocky ground, while in the background a fine guilloche pattern serves as a modern security feature. The inscription "BRITANNIA 2026 · 1 oz · 999.9 FINE GOLD" frames the design.
The obverse features the profile portrait of King Charles III, surrounded by the inscription "CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 100 POUNDS". This interplay of royal portrait and mythological figure makes the Britannia one of the most expressive bullion coins of all.
The Original Coin Tube: Protection and Presentation in One
This set is delivered in the Royal Mint's official coin tube. The semi-transparent, milky-white tube with its distinctive yellow lid – embossed with the royal coat of arms featuring crown, lion and unicorn – reliably protects your ten gold coins from scratches, fingerprints and environmental influences. Coin tubes of this kind are supplied directly by the manufacturer as packaging material and are specifically tailored to the 32.70 mm diameter. This keeps your Britannia coins in immaculate, Brilliant Uncirculated condition – whether in a safe, a bank safety deposit box or as part of your personal collection.
Why 10 Ounces Gold Britannia? The Advantages at a Glance
Those who choose this investor package are thinking long-term. And for good reason. Gold has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years – no paper currency in history can claim the same. While fiat money can be created at will by central banks, the supply of gold remains naturally limited. It is precisely this scarcity that gives the precious metal its remarkable value stability.
- Tax advantage: Profits from the sale of investment gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. In addition, gold is exempt from VAT (Value Added Tax) – meaning you pay no additional sales tax.
- Highest purity: With a fineness of 999.9/1,000, the Britannia belongs to the absolute top tier of bullion coins – comparable to the Vienna Philharmonic or the Maple Leaf.
- Global liquidity: The Britannia is traded and recognised around the world. It can be converted into cash at any time without complications.
- Volume discount through the tube: Purchasing a complete coin tube is particularly attractive for investors, as larger denominations frequently allow for more favourable premiums per ounce.
"Gold has never had a value of zero – and never will. It is humanity's oldest currency, the money that even central banks trust when they no longer trust their own paper money."
Retirement Provision with Substance
This package is ideally suited as a building block for private retirement provision. 311 grams of purest gold – that is tangible wealth that can be passed down from generation to generation. No counterparty risk, no dependence on digital systems. Simply physical gold in your hands. At a time when confidence in fiat currencies is waning worldwide and central banks are massively increasing their gold reserves, owning physical gold sends a clear signal: you are placing your trust in real values.
