2024’s All-New Gold Britannia Proof Is Here!

Great Britain’s Royal Mint introduced its premier Gold Britannia bullion series in 1987 and followed it up 10 years later with the Silver Britannia series in 1997. Today, the Britannia coins are among the premier names in precious metal coinage. And while the bullion edition of the Britannia has kept its same design since 2013, each year brings an exciting new design to the Britannia Proof releases—and this year is no different! With a new contemporary design, we’re proud to bring you this 2024 Britannia Gold Proof!

A Regal Profile Of Brave Britannia

Struck in 1/40th of an ounce of 99.99% pure gold by the artisans of the Royal Mint, the new one-year-only reverse design for 2024 was created by Marie-Alice Harel, an award-winning French author and illustrator based in Edinburgh, Scotland. It displays the proud profile of Britannia steadfastly staring down plunging waves ready to crash down on the English coast. Harel, who was a Geosciences PhD and researcher before becoming a full-time illustrator, is noted for the playful way she combines images and stories. Look closely and you’ll see that style in the way that the plume of Britannia’s helmet flows into the waves in a symbolic representation of her historic connection with the sea. It’s a wonderful coin that will assume a place of honor in anyone’s collection.
