Half Ounce 22 Carat Gold Mixed-Date Britannia Bullion Coins (Best Value)
1/2oz gold bullion mixed-year Britannias in 22 carat gold. These Royal Mint bullion coins were first struck in 1987 and have always born an image of Britannia: the female personification of the British Isles on their reverse. She’s most commonly seen standing, holding a shield and trident in a classic design by Philip Nathan, the composition of the coin around her: ‘1/2 · OUNCE · FINE · GOLD · BRITANNIA’ with the date at the bottom right. This is paired with portrait of Queen Elizabeth II to the obverse alongside the face value: £50 / Fifty Pound for half ounce editions. Gold Britannias minted until 2012 were composed of 22 carat gold. This was increased in 2013 to 24 carat (0.9999 fine) gold. Pre-2013 Britannias contain the same amount of pure gold as their later counterparts but weigh a little more overall. The diameter is the same: 27.00 millimetres for these fractional bullion coins.
