The inscriptions on this side read 100 POUNDS, ELIZABETH II, and D.G. REG. F.D.

Reverse

History

In 2021, the Royal Mint added four security features to the design of the Britannia Gold Coin. All of these are found on the reverse and include tincture lines on the stripes of the Union Jack, a latent security image that changes from a padlock to a trident as you move the coin, a micro-text inscription around the central design, and wave motion lines in the background that move as you adjust the viewing angle of the coin.
