The Britannia gold coin series is one of the most prestigious and enduring coin collections issued by the Royal Mint in the United Kingdom. The series features the iconic figure of Britannia, a symbol of British strength and unity. The imagery of the Britannia coin is a female personification of the British Isles and has been associated with the nation's spirit for centuries. The portrayal of Britannia on the coin includes elements that emphasise her maritime connection and the historical significance of the British naval power.
The stunning Britannia coin continues in 2024 with the image created by Philip Nathan in 1987. The image has remained the same apart from the additional security features introduced using newer laser technology. On the reverse of the coin Britannia is depicted holding a trident, a three-pronged spear, symbolising the maritime power of the kingdom and its historical prowess at sea. Her flowing robes convey a sense of grace and majesty and she holds a shield in her left hand to represent the nation's defence and protection. She also holds an olive branch in the same hand to signify peace.
The obverse of the coin displays Martin Jennings’ skilfully crafted official low relief coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III.
The Britannia coin design incorporates four advanced security elements: A latent image that seamlessly transforms from a padlock to the iconic trident; surface animation, creating dynamic movement in the background resembling waves; micro-text, offering both decoration and enhanced protection; and the shield, adorned with the Union flag together with the addition of tincture lines.
The Britannia King Charles III 1oz Gold Coin 2024 contains 1 troy ounce of fine gold with a purity of 999.9/1000 which equates to a metric weight of 31.10 grams.

The coin is also available in half-ounce, quarter-ounce and tenth-ounce fine gold editions; one kilo and one ounce fine silver editions; and one ounce and tenth-ounce in fine platinum.
