On 2nd March, 2015, The Royal Mint unveiled a new effigy of the Queen, designed by Royal Mint engraver Jody Clark. Whilst the 2015 proof Britannias had the new design on their obverse, the bullion coins kept the fourth design, by Ian Rank-Broadley.
This makes the 2016 bullion Britannias the first to feature the fifth portrait.
Since 2013 the silver Britannia coins have been made in 0.999 fine silver, rather than Britannia 0.958 fine silver. The one ounce coin has a face value of £2 and contains one troy ounce of silver.
The silver Britannia was first introduced in 1997, following on from the success of the gold version of the coin.
The obverse features the fifth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark.
The reverse design shows the classic standing Britannia.

Many of our customers are happy to invest in silver and pay the VAT, currently at 20% and we are more than happy to supply investment silver. The advantage of purchasing silver Britannias over any of the other silver one ounce coins is that as they are legal tender Sterling they are exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT).
If you would like to avoid the VAT as well as the CGT then we would recommend either Sovereigns or Britannias of any date. For more information on investing in gold please visit our gold website taxfreegold.co.uk
