One of the most recognized symbols of Great Britain is Britannia. Her origins date back more than 2,000 years to the Roman era in the British Isles, and she has appeared on British coinage for over 350 years. In modern times, Britannia returned to prominence in 1987 with the launch of bullion coins featuring her updated design. Today, the 1 oz British Gold Britannia Bar offers a fresh way to own this historic figure in gold bullion form.

Bar Highlights:

• Arrives inside protective packaging with an Assay card!
• 1st-ever release of Britannia’s image of a gold bullion bar!
• Contains 1 Troy oz of .9999 pure gold.
• Obverse depicts Britannia in right-profile relief.
• Reverse includes the seal of the Royal Mint of England and other design elements.
• Artwork from Jody Clark.
• Please note that the assay card designs may vary.

The 1 oz British Gold Britannia Bar from the Royal Mint introduces a new way to feature this well-known figure. Rather than repeating the exact look seen on coins, the design presents a different interpretation of Britannia. Created by Jody Clark, this version keeps traditional elements while offering a style unique to this bar format.

All 1 oz British Gold Britannia Bars available here come sealed in tamper-evident packaging and include an individual Assay card. Each bar also features a unique serial number that matches the number shown on the card, helping confirm authenticity.

Britannia represents the strength and identity of Great Britain and the wider British Isles. Her origins trace back to Roman times, when the province of Britannia was established. Over centuries, she became a lasting national symbol, reflecting both the defense of the homeland and the growth of the nation’s influence.

On the obverse of the 1 oz British Gold Britannia Bar, you’ll find a right-profile image of Britannia. She holds a trident, representing control of the seas, and wears a Corinthian helmet for protection. Part of her shield is also shown, featuring the Union Jack.

The reverse side of the British Gold Britannia Bar displays the seal of the Royal Mint of England, the oldest mint in Europe still in operation. Additional design features include wave patterns along the bottom and a six-digit serial number beginning with “RM,” identifying the Royal Mint.
