2022 Gold Britannia Coin 1oz NGC MS70

A 2022 Britannia one ounce gold coin from The Royal Mint.

Gold Britannias are the most popular one ounce gold coin for larger UK-based private investors, as they are both exempt from Capital Gains Tax and VAT-free as investment gold.

A British bullion gold coin first introduced in 1987 with a face value of £100 as a 22-carat coin. Since 2012, the Britannia is now a fine gold coin made in 24-carat.

The 2022 1oz gold Britannia features the fifth and most recent portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, first introduced in 2015. It was designed by The Royal Mint's own engraver, Jody Clark, and - like the third portrait - sees the Queen wearing the King George IV State Diadem. This is the crown that is typically worn for the annual State Opening of Parliament.

The Britannia is one of the world's most recognised coin designs, taking its name from the female personification of Britain who has appeared on coinage in Roman times. First issued as a gold bullion coin in 1987, the Britannia has become a flagship series for the Royal Mint, celebrated for its elegant artistry, consistent purity, and strong international reputation among collectors and investors alike.
