1kg Silver Britannia Coin – Design
From their launch in 1997 up until January 2023, these hugely popular, well loved 1oz Silver Britannia coins have featured the delightful effigy of The Late Queen Elizabeth II on the coins obverse, designed by Jody Clark. A second Britannia design was released by the Royal Mint in January 2023 following the accession of His Majesty King Charles III, making it the first Britannia coin not bearing the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The reverse of these coins will still proudly boast the classic Britannia design by Philip Nathan, while the obverse marked a big day in the history books with the handsome new King Charles III portrait by Martin Jennings.
Silver Britannia Coin – Background
Silver continues to be desired, as it has been for centuries, for both its beauty and value. Britannia coins are an affordable way to appreciate its precious qualities. Royal Mint Britannia coins are the most popular silver investment coin in the UK for a number of different reasons. Britannia coins are highly regarded, competitively priced, are CGT Exempt and do not lose their production value over time as there is always a demand for the coins. They are well known and often traded privately as well as through bullion dealers, giving you plenty of options when you want to sell.
Perhaps the most important factor to consider when choosing UK coinage vs coins made in other countries is that UK bullion coins produced by The Royal Mint are UK legal tender and hence Capital Gains Tax free. CGT benefits might be considered when choosing what form of metal to buy as by purchasing UK coins eligible for CGT exemption you can avoid paying tax on the profit you make when you come to sell. As Legal Tender coins are exempt from CGT they will have no impact on your annual tax allowances either, which many investors find reassuring.
Britannia History
The legendary figure of Britannia has symbolised Britain’s strength and integrity on coinage since Roman times. Little wonder then that the Britannia with such a depth of history behind it, has been a popular choice with bullion investors ever since its introduction in 1987. This new specification combined with its tradition and integrity gives new life for today’s investment customer.
