Britannia represents an enduring bullion investment. The strength and weight of the coins are verified at the centuries-old annual Trial of the Pyx, ensuring quality and consistency. Britannia coins also benefit from CGT exemption in the United Kingdom.
Sculptor Philip Nathan, the designer of the first Britannia bullion in 1987, envisaged her as a classic and evolving icon. In this classic design she stands firm against a powerful gale which whips around her shield, Corinthian helmet and olive branch.
