Gold Quarter Ounce 2024 Britannia and Liberty, Bullion, Coin from United Kingdom
CoinGold Quarter Ounce 2024 Britannia and Liberty, Bullion

Like many other mints, the Royal Mint issues bullion coins in precious metals, having much higher intrinsic value than their face value. The quarter ounce (1/4 oz) gold coins are denominated as Twenty-five Pounds (£25).

The coins are legal tender but are not intended for circulation. They are targeted at bullion investors or collectors who appreciate the special editions as pieces of art. The coins are typically "one-year" types usually issued in parallel with other denominations with the same reverse designs.

This coin is part of a range celebrating the national symbols of the United Kingdom and the United States.

The Royal Mint says about it:
Britannia and Liberty, the symbols of two proud nations with a special relationship, feature together on a commemorative UK coin for the first time.

For the first time in history, the Chief Engravers of The Royal Mint and the United States Mint have collaborated on a single design, combining their experience and expertise. Inspired by the concept of court cards, the figures of Britannia and Liberty are given equal prominence in the design. The figures also represent fortitude and freedom, virtues that underpin the national identities of both the UK and the US.

Obverse
United Kingdom / Gold Quarter Ounce 2024 Britannia and Liberty, Bullion - obverse photo

The obverse of the coin displays the first definitive portrait of King Charles III, which shows his bare (uncrowned) head facing left.

Below the neck truncation in tiny letters, the artist's initials MJ (for Martin Jennings).

Around, the monarch's legend followed by the face value: CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 25 POUNDS ·. Translated from Latin, the legend means: Charles the Third, by the Grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith.

The obverse has a textured background ("guilloche" geometric pattern).

Reverse
United Kingdom / Gold Quarter Ounce 2024 Britannia and Liberty, Bullion - reverse photo

In a symmetric pattern at centre, the reverse of the coin depicts Britannia - the female personification of the United Kingdom, and Liberty - a symbol of the United States. They face in opposite directions, like the figures on a playing card.

Britannia is shown as a young woman wearing a Corinthian helmet pulled up to reveal her face, holding a trident (overlaid on Liberty), as a symbol of the past maritime glory of England. In small letters below the figure, the initials of the designer - GS, for Gordon Summers.

Facing the other way (so that the coin needs to be rotated to be seen properly), Liberty is presented as a young woman with flowing hair, holding a flaming torch (overlaid on Britannia). Over her hair, and in the background, seven five-pointed stars. In small letters below the figure, the initials of the designer - JFM (for Joseph Francis Menna).

The background is patterned with a fine mesh of microdots.

Around above, the inscription BRITANNIA AND LIBERTY. Around below, the date of issue and the precious metal content: · 2024 · 1/4 oz 999.9 FINE GOLD · (one quarter of a troy ounce of 99.99% gold).
