Britannia, the personification of Great Britain, is not only the namesake of the first European bullion coin, but is also depicted as a motif on the reverse. The Britannia gold coin was minted for the first time in 1987, since then the coin has been produced continuously by the Royal Mint in Great Britain, whereby the appearance has been adapted again and again. The changing appearance and the small mintage of the coin also make it interesting for collectors.
