Tenth ounce gold Britannia produced by the Royal mint.
The Britannia is 999.9 pure gold, has a denomination of 10 pounds. It diameter is 16.5 mm. The weight is 3.13 gram.
The front of the coin shows Queen Elizabeth ll,
The reverse shows the standing figure of Britannia. She is holding a Trident in her right hand.
Britannia coins can be use as legal tender. But as gold is worth much more, it does not make sense to do that. These make excellent gifts or for collectors. For centuries Britannia is a symbol that has represented British coinage.
Thank you for looking at my coins. Next time I try taking better photos. Maybe I should buy a digital camera.
