2006 Britannia Quarter Ounce Gold Proof Coin
Collectable quarter-ounce gold proof [Britannia](file:///collections/2023-britannias/) from 2006, available in the original packaging from [The Royal Mint](file:///buy-coins/the-royal-mint/) with a numbered certificate. In 2006, the Mint used the classic standing [Britannia](file:///blog/britannia-on-coins/) design for coins in the Britannia range. Created by [Philip Nathan](file:///blog/philip-nathan/) in 1987 for the first gold Britannias, this motif has been a mainstay of the series since its inception. It's paired here with [Ian Rank-Broadley](file:///blog/ian-rank-broadley/)'s portrait of [Queen Elizabeth II](file:///buy-coins/elizabeth-ii/). - Quarter-ounce Britannias are struck in 8.51 grams of solid 22-carat gold with a [proof finish](file:///buy-coins/proof/) - UK legal tender collector's coin with a face value of [Twenty-Five Pounds](file:///buy-coins/25-twenty-five-pounds/) - 728 of these 1/4oz coins were issued in this individual presentation by The Royal Mint in 2006
