Specifications
2023 Gold 1/2oz Britannia Coin
This will be a special short production run of the 2023 Britannia, featuring the Late Queen Elizabeth II.
Production will end mid-November, to be replaced by the King Charles III version. Order quick to be one of the few investors to own a 2023 Britannia featuring the Queen, before production finishes.
The Britannia remains the most popular coin for collectors and investors alike since its introduction in 1987. This is a brand-new bullion coin issued by The Royal Mint.
The Britannia is produced in a variety of sizes ranging from the tiny tenth ounce, to the Sovereign-sixed quarter ounce, the half ounce and the large 1oz coin. The Mint also produces the 1oz coin in fine silver for the past two decades, which like the gold version, is a favourite amongst UK investors.
This Gold Half Ounce coin is struck in 999.9 fineness 24 carat gold. The coin was originally launched in 1987 as a 22-carat coin, with an alloy mix of copper and silver for optimum resilience. However, the purity was increased to 24-carat from 2013 to appeal to the growingly important Asian market.
This 1/2oz version of the full Britannia is identical in design to the 1oz version, containing the Philip Nathan design of Britannia on one side and the Jody Clark portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II.
It has a face value of £50 which qualifies it as legal tender and therefore any value gains are completely free from any Capital Gains Tax.
