Royal Mint Britannia - the iconic British bullion motif
The Britannia bar from The Royal Mint is an extension of the most famous British bullion motif, known from Britannia coins minted continuously since 1987. The obverse features the allegorical figure of Britannia - the patroness of British naval power, embodying strength, independence and freedom. The current version was designed by P.J. Lynch, who revived the classical motif with a dynamic composition featuring a trident and a shield bearing the Union Jack. The reverse carries The Royal Mint logo, weight and fineness markings and an individual serial number.
Britannia is the only official bullion motif of the British Crown, and bars in this series combine an investment character with numismatic status. The product is especially valued by collectors of British gold and by investors looking to diversify their portfolio beyond traditional Swiss and German refineries. The strong recognition of The Royal Mint brand in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth ensures high liquidity in those markets.

The blister with assay certificate serves both as protective packaging and as a certificate - it contains confirmation of fineness and weight, a serial number matching the one on the bar, and the assayer's signature. Opening the blister reduces the bar's market value, so we recommend keeping it in the original packaging.

The Royal Mint is recognised at every professional bullion dealer in Europe, which translates into very high liquidity on the secondary market. The refinery processes both primary gold (mine-doré) and recycled gold (LBMA Responsible Gold), meeting the highest ethical sourcing standards.

FAQ - frequently asked questions
How much gold does the 100 g bar contain?
The bar contains exactly 100 g of pure gold with 999.9/1000 fineness, equivalent to 3.2150 troy ounces. Bar dimensions are 31 × 54 × 3 mm.
What is the difference between minted and cast bars?
Minted bars have a smooth, mirror-like surface and sharp edges, as they are produced by stamping from rolled strips. Cast bars have a rough, matte surface and are made by pouring molten gold into moulds. Minted bars are usually more expensive due to the more complex production process but look more aesthetically refined.
Does the bar come with an assay certificate?
Yes, every bar is packaged in the original blister with an assay certificate containing the serial number, fineness, weight and assayer signature.
Who manufactures the The Royal Mint bar?
The bar is manufactured by The Royal Mint - The Royal Mint is the British royal mint with a tradition dating back to 886 - one of the oldest mints in the world. The company is LBMA Good Delivery accredited.
Is investment gold subject to VAT?
No. Investment gold (bars with a minimum fineness of 995/1000 and qualifying coins) is VAT-exempt across the European Union under Council Directive 98/80/EC. This is a significant advantage of gold over silver or platinum.
Can I open the packaging?
We do not recommend opening the original blister. A bar in intact packaging has a higher market value and is easier to resell, as the blister confirms the authenticity and origin of the metal.
How liquid are The Royal Mint bars?
Bars from LBMA Good Delivery-accredited refineries are among the most liquid gold investment products in Europe. They are accepted without additional verification at bullion banks, professional buybacks and dealers worldwide.
How do I store a 100 g bar?
It is best to keep the bar in the original packaging, in a dry place away from moisture. For higher values, we recommend a home safe rated at least S2 (EN 14450) or class 0 (EN 1143-1) - depending on the value of the gold stored - or an insured bank safe deposit box.
