The 2025 Britannia coin range masterfully combines tradition and innovation, celebrating the enduring symbol of Britannia while showcasing cutting-edge security features. The coin’s flowing wave effect, achieved through surface animation, adds dynamic depth. At the same time, micro-text bearing the Latin phrase “DECUS ET TUTAMEN” (an ornament and a safeguard) highlights its protective and decorative nature. A latent feature switches between a trident and a padlock depending on the angle of view, symbolising Britannia’s naval strength and the coin’s secure nature. Additionally, tincture lines meticulously enhance details such as the Union flag on Britannia’s shield, creating one of the most visually secure and technically advanced coins ever produced.
How are bullion prices calculated?
The 'buy' and 'sell' prices shown on the website represent the market value of raw vaulted metal in an 'unallocated' form. This is the standard way prices are quoted throughout the bullion industry. In order for The Royal Mint to deliver beautifully crafted precious metals products to your address, or to our vault, a number of processes must take place, all of which incur a cost. These processes include transportation, refining, minting, quality checking and merchandising.
The price at which The Royal Mint is able to sell bullion products to consumers is therefore made up of the 'spot price' (the buy price) plus an additional premium. The premium accounts for the costs incurred in manufacturing a particular product and is usually either a percentage of the buy price or a fixed monetary amount. In short, manufactured bullion products always sell at a premium to enable retailers and manufacturers to cover their costs.
Can I spend/pay using my bullion coins?
All UK coins, whether circulating or non-circulating, are authorised as “legal tender” by Royal Proclamation, in accordance with the Coinage Act of 1971.
Legal tender allows UK coins to be accepted for payment of debts in court – but, only circulating legal tender coins are designed to be spent and traded at businesses and banks. The Royal Mint creates commemorative and bullion coin series to celebrate key moments or individuals, and these are treasured for their collectable and aesthetic value, or purchased for investment opportunities. However, these non-circulating, commemorative and bullion coins are limited edition and will not enter general circulation – meaning banks and businesses are not required to accept them.
