2017 Great Britain 1/2 oz Gold Britannia BU
The 2017 Gold Britannia represents a modern continuation of a legendary numismatic tradition. Struck with a half ounce of extremely pure 0.9999 fine gold, this coin is backed by the British government as official sovereign currency. The Britannia series itself has a rich history, first debuting in 1987, with silver editions following a decade later in 1997. On the obverse, the coin displays the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II alongside the face value of 100 pounds. The reverse features the standing figure of Britannia, a powerful female personification who has represented the strength and integrity of Britain on coins since the era of the Roman Empire. This side also records the year 2017, the denomination, and the gold purity, making it a fascinating study in symbolic national identity.
