The weight of the coin is 31.21 grams with a fineness of 999.9 (24 carat gold), this means it contains 31.10348 grams of pure gold. The diameter of the coin is 32.69 mm. The 1oz Britannias have a face value of 100 Pounds and are legal tender in the UK.

The Britannia coin takes its name from the iconic female symbol of Britain, a figure that has appeared on British coinage for over 2,000 years dating back to Roman occupation. The modern gold Britannia series was first introduced by the Royal Mint in 1987, establishing itself as the United Kingdom's premier gold bullion coin. The gold Britannia has earned a strong reputation worldwide, making it one of the most sought-after coins for both collectors and investors.

Obverse: The obverse of the King Charles III 2026 Britannia 1oz Gold Coin features the King's official portrait, designed by Martin Jennings. This effigy of King Charles III shows his profile facing left, without a crown. This is the first official portrait of Charles III to be used on coins minted by The Royal Mint. The sculptor's initials, 'M.J.', are visible at the bottom of the head.

The inscription on the coin reads 'CHARLES III.D.G.REX.F.D'.

Reverse: The reverse of the 2026 1oz Gold Britannia features the classic figure of Lady Britannia, designed by Philip Nathan, with the text 'NATHAN' at the bottom of the coin.

The Britannia is the official gold bullion coin of the UK, and the 2026 gold Britannia one ounce coin is a great choice for 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.

Coins will be supplied in capsules, tubes, or monster box depending on quantity purchased.
