Description
The Royal Mint's 2026 Gold Britannia 1/4 oz coin carries a £25 face value and a quarter troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, striking a balance between size and substance. Sculptor Martin Jennings designed the obverse portrait of King Charles III, shown uncrowned and in profile, marking the current generation of Royal Mint bullion. Philip Nathan's classic 1987 reverse remains the centrepiece: Britannia poised with trident in hand, shield at her side bearing the Union Flag, olive branch signaling peace. Modern security details run through the design, from micro-text spelling out "DECUS ET TUTAMEN" around the rim to a background wave animation and a latent image that toggles between a padlock and a trident depending on the angle. Collectors buy this weight for its versatility, sized comfortably above the tenth ounce yet still easy to gift, display, or add to an existing run of Britannias. Purity, provenance, and design consistency make it a strong addition to any collection focused on British coinage.
