Reverse: The reverse features Philip Nathan's classic design of Lady Britannia, with 'NATHAN' shown at the bottom of the coin.

As the UK's official gold bullion coin, the 1oz Britannia is a popular choice for investors. Its status as UK legal tender means it is exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and investment gold is also VAT-free.

This version comes sealed in secure, Britannia-branded blister packaging from The Royal Mint, helping protect the coin while keeping it neatly presented.
