The design on the reverse of the 2026 gold Britannia 1oz coin features the classic image of Lady Britannia, with the updated security features that makes the Britannia one of the most secure coins in the world. The obverse of the coin features the official effigy of King Charles III by Martin Jennings.

The Britannia is the official gold bullion coin of the UK, and the 2026 gold Britannia one ounce coin is a great choice for UK investors. With a £100 face value it is a legal tender coin in the UK making it exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT) in addition to being VAT-free.

Description

The 2026 UK Britannia 1oz Gold Coin features the internationally recognised portrait of Britannia. The design was created by Philip Nathan and is exclusive to The Royal Mint. In recent years, the Britannia has also incorporated new security features to the traditional design, including: a laser engraved wave pattern and latent image marker, tincture lines, and a micro-text feature, making the coin much more difficult to duplicate.

The obverse of the coin bears the uncrowned portrait of King Charles III designed by sculptor Martin Jennings, along with the coin’s monetary denomination of 100 pounds.

  • Manufactured by The Royal Mint in Llantrisant, South Wales.
