Silver Britannias

The Silver Britannia is a popular coin produced by the Royal Mint of the United Kingdom. The coin was first introduced in 1987 and is widely considered to be the UK's most popular Capital Gains Tax (CGT) exempt 1 oz silver coin. The face value of a 1 oz Silver Britannia is £2, although the coin's intrinsic value is significantly higher due to the value of the silver content. The coin's design features a depiction of Britannia, a female figure symbolising Britain.

The coins are delivered to us in tubes of 25. If ordered in multiples of 25, the coins will be sent in a Royal Mint tube at no extra cost.

For UK residents, bullion coins which are UK legal tender pound sterling coins are exempt from capital gains tax (CGT).
