Fans of the Gold Britannia Series have long appreciated the consistent image of the reigning monarch on the obverse. From the first release in 1987 until 2022, these coins featured Queen Elizabeth II each year. After her passing in September 2022, The Royal Mint had to depict a different monarch on these coins for the first time. However, the Queen made one final appearance on early 2023 coins. Now, you can find 2023 1/2 oz British Gold Britannia Coins in certified condition available online at BullionMax.
Coin Highlights:
The passing of Queen Elizabeth II brought significant changes to the bullion coin market. Countries like Britain, Canada, and Australia started creating new monarch portraits for King Charles III in 2023. This shift marked the first time these coins featured a different monarch.
Queen Elizabeth II was England’s longest-reigning monarch. Her reign saw numerous cultural and political changes in the nation. As a constitutional monarch, she served as the Head of State for the United Kingdom and 14 other Commonwealth realms, playing a vital symbolic and ceremonial role.
On the obverse of the 2023 1/2 oz Gold Britannia Coins, you’ll find the fifth-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. She is depicted in right-profile relief, wearing the George IV State Diadem. This image, designed by Jody Clark, was first used on British coins in 2016.
The reverse design of the 2023 British Gold Britannia features Philip Nathan’s iconic depiction of Britannia. Created in 1987, it shows Britannia wearing a Corinthian helmet, holding a trident in one hand and an olive branch in the other. Her left hand rests on a shield bearing the Union Jack.
These 2023 1/2 oz British Gold Britannia Coins are Mint State 70 specimens, meaning they have full, original mint luster with no imperfections. The NGC certifies these coins as among the last 500 2023 Britannias struck by The Royal Mint with Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.
