2023 1/4 oz British Gold Britannia Coin NGC MS69 (Last 500 Struck, Queen Elizabeth II)
Product Description
For over three decades, the British Gold Britannia has been issued by The Royal Mint featuring only one monarch on the obverse. Throughout its history, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was the sole figure on the obverse. Following her passing in September 2022, The Royal Mint began to phase out her effigy on coinage. The final release of Britannias with her portrait occurred in early 2023. Right now, 2023 1/4 oz British Gold Britannia Coins are available in certified condition from BGASC.

Each 2023 1/4 oz British Gold Britannia Coin offered here comes in near-perfect condition. Mint State 69 coins display full, original mint luster and feature no more than two minor flaws. These minor flaws are limited to tiny contact marks or hairlines. The NGC certifies these coins as among the last 500 coins struck in 2023 with Elizabeth II on the obverse.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2023 British Gold Britannias features the final effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, created in 2015 by Jody Clark. This right-profile portrait depicts the Queen at 89 years old, wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 2023 1/4 oz Gold Britannia Coin, you will find Philip Nathans depiction of Britannia. This design, introduced in 1987, shows Britannias full-length figure holding a trident in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. She wears a Corinthian helmet and rests her left hand on a Union Jack shield.
History
Queen Elizabeth IIs reign was the longest in British history, spanning from 1952 to 2022. During her reign, she appointed 15 British Prime Ministers, from Winston Churchill to Liz Truss, and held weekly meetings with each to discuss state affairs.
