Price Explanation

The Britannia 1/2 ounce gold coin is a symbol of British elegance and tradition, minted by the Royal Mint since 1987. Made from 999.9 pure gold (24-carat), this bullion coin contains exactly 1/2 troy ounce of gold, or approximately 15.55 grams. The coin's design evolves over the years, but it always features Britannia, an allegorical figure representing the resilience of the United Kingdom.

The reverse of the Britannia 2025 features Lady Britannia with a shield decorated with the Union flag. She holds a trident in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, symbolizing strength and peace respectively. Around her are the inscriptions "BRITANNIA 2025", "1/2 OZ", and "999.9 FINE GOLD".

On the obverse of the coin, the portrait of King Charles III faces to the left, in keeping with the tradition whereby each new monarch is depicted facing in the opposite direction to his predecessor. The inscriptions "50 POUNDS", "CHARLES III" and "D.G. REX. F.D." ("Dei Gratia Rex Fidei Defensor" - Latin for "By the grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith") surround the portrait.

The Britannia 1/2 ounce is particularly prized by investors for its exceptional purity and world-renowned status, making it a safe and easy-to-trade asset. It is also prized by collectors for the beauty of its designs and its historical significance.

Individual coins come in a protective plastic bag.
