The 2023 release of British Britannias will be unlike any other in the history of this series. This marks the final time that the Royal Mint will feature an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse of the coins. It will also lead, eventually, the first-ever Britannias with a monarch other than Elizabeth II on the obverse. Today, you have the opportunity to get 2023 British Britannia 1 oz Gold Coins online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
In 2023, British Britannia Gold Coins continue to feature security elements on the reverse. These elements include a motion effect in the background and on the latent security image. There are also tincture lines on the Union Jack and micro text around the design element.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2023 Britannia 1 oz Gold Coin, you will find a fifth-generation effigy of Her Majesty to grace British coins, this portrait of the Queen was created in 2015 by Jody Clark and shows the Queen at the age of 89 wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown. This design includes a guilloche background element with inscriptions of 100 POUNDS, ELIZABETH II, and D.G. REG F.D.
Reverse
The reverse side of the 2023 British Britannia Gold Coin comes with the figure of Britannia in a three-quarter profile. She clutches a trident in one hand with her other hand clutching an olive branch as it rests on a shield. She wears a Corinthian helmet as she stands guard on the coast. Inscriptions on this face of the coin read BRITANNIA, 2022, 1 OZ, and 999.9 FINE GOLD.
History
Following Queen Elizabeth IIs passing in September 2022, the Royal Mint has chosen to continue in 2023 with the effigy of Her Majesty on the Britannia coins. This will be the last issue of the coins with her effigy before King Charles III, the eldest child of Her Majesty, begins to appear on British coins.
