1989 1 oz British Gold Britannia Coin
Better Business Bureau
Product Description
The Royal Mint launched the Gold Britannia series in 1987, establishing what would become one of the United Kingdoms most respected bullion coin programs. The series continues Britains long tradition of coin production while meeting modern investment standards. While todays Britannias contain .9999 pure gold, earlier coins like the 1989 release were struck in 22-karat gold. The 1989 1 oz British Gold Britannia Coin is available now at BGASC.
Highlights:
- Arrives in a plastic flip!
- 3rd year of issue for the Gold Britannia!
- Contains 1 troy oz of actual gold content.
- Bears a face value of 100 Pound sterling (GBP) backed by the government of Britain.
- The obverse depicts the third-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
- On the reverse is the modern Britannia effigy by Philip Nathan.
Each coin is delivered in a protective plastic flip. The 1989 Britannia contains 1 troy oz of gold within a 22-karat composition of 91.67% gold and copper as the remaining alloy. This year is notable as the last time copper was used in the blend. In subsequent years, from 1990 through 2012, silver replaced copper in the alloy mixture.
Obverse
The obverse of the 1989 British Gold Britannia features Raphael Makloufs third portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Used between 1985 and 1997, this design shows the Queen wearing the Royal Diadem. The surrounding inscriptions list the denomination and year, completing the coins official presentation.
Reverse
On the reverse, Philip Nathans classic Britannia design is displayed. Britannia stands firm with her trident and shield, symbolizing national resilience and maritime heritage. The fine details throughout the design reflect the Royal Mints careful production standards.
History
Gold Britannias hold legal tender status in the UK and carry a government-backed face value. For residents of the United Kingdom, these coins may offer certain tax benefits, including exemption from Capital Gains Tax. The series has gained steady global recognition for its gold weight and traditional imagery, making it a dependable bullion option.
