2024 Gold and Silver Britannia Proofs from The Royal Mint!
Perfect, FDI and Featuring a Stunning Modern Interpretation of Britannia!
It was nearly two thousand years ago when Britannia was born, courtesy of the Romans who imagined a noble, graceful warrior, and placed her on coins—signifying the new province they had claimed. After the Romans left Britain in the early 400s, Britannia disappeared for hundreds of years—until the 17th century when England, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, extended its naval power and defeated a Spanish invasion. The combination of a strong female monarch and a growing national confidence resulted in Britannia’s revival, and her first appearance on British coinage in 1672.
That was over 350 years ago, and Britannia has been on British coinage ever since—the longest running coin series from The Royal Mint—symbolizing values held dear by the nation, such as strength, resilience, and fortitude.
One Year Only Design
This year’s one year only reverse design features a modern interpretation of Britannia by award-winning French author and illustrator Marie-Alice Harel, whose work is regularly exhibited in galleries in the U.K., the USA and France. Britannia is poised above an oncoming wave, into which her plumed helmet flows to represent her historic connection to the sea.
Each coin’s obverse features the official coinage portrait of His Majesty, King Charles III, by designer Martin Jennings. Jennings has designed many public sculptures in the U.K., and has sculpted great writers and poets including Charles Dickens and George Orwell.
Struck in 99.99% Pure Gold and 99.9% Fine Silver
These Britannia Proofs are available struck in a 6-Pc. 99.99% pure gold Proof Set (1-oz. half ounce., quarter ounce, tenth ounce, twentieth ounce and fortieth ounce) or a proof struck in five ounces of 99.9% fine silver, or a 2-Pc. Proof Set consisting of two coins struck in one ounce of 99.9% fine silver, one with a proof finish and one with a reverse proof finish. All coins are official U.K. legal tender.
Exquisite Proof and Reverse Proof Finishes
As Proofs, these 2024 Britannia coins are struck to a much higher standard of beauty, quality, and craftsmanship than circulated coins. Proof planchets (blanks) are specially treated, hand-polished and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes, then hand-fed into presses fitted with specially polished dies and struck twice or more, unlike non-proofs which are struck only once. The extra strikes give proofs a glamorous shine and make intricate, razor-sharp details of the design pop off of brilliant fields. Reverse Proofs are reversed, with mirror-like raised elements and frosted backgrounds. While circulated coins are struck on high-speed presses by the thousands, these Britannia Proofs are individually struck by highly skilled artisans who are creating numismatic masterpieces.
Perfect, with Sought-After First Day of Issue Designations!
These Britannia Proofs have all been certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in flawless Proof-70 (PF70) condition. They also come with NGC-certified designations. The five-ounce silver coin and the 6-pc. gold set both have First Releases (FR) designations, meaning they have been received for grading within 30 days of the coin’s release from the mint. The 2-pc. silver set coins have with a First Day of Issue (FDI) designations, which means they were purchased within one day of the first day of release from the mint.
Custom Britannia Labels
Your coins will arrive with a Royal Mint numbered certificate of authenticity, in a Royal Mint branded wood presentation case. Each coin is encapsulated with an NGC-exclusive label commemorating Britannia.
Extremely Limited Mintages
To start with, mintages for these 2024 Britannia Proofs are insanely small—though the numbers don’t tell the whole “limited availability” story because the Britannia Proofs you have here are perfect and with coveted designations, which makes the populations significantly smaller than the actual mintage. Only 250 6-Pc. Gold Sets were authorized, just 556 five-ounce silver proofs were authorized, and only 850 2-Pc. Sets were authorized.
These will not last. Take a look for yourself to see why they are sure to be collectors’ favorites.
