The Design

Britannia has been a national symbol stamped on sovereign coins since the ancient Roman era. In this Series, Britannia’s depiction is Philip Nathan’s artwork, which depicts her as a master of the ocean with a trident and the Union Jack shield.  The image is encircled by the repeated expression “Decus et Tutamen,” meaning “An ornament and a safeguard.” The second circle on the border carries the coin’s year of mintage, weight, metal content, and fineness inscribed as “BRITANNIA,” “2024,” ¼ oz,” “999.9,” “FINE GOLD.”

King Charles III’s official effigy is a left-profile bust signed by artist Martin Jennings. Encircling the King’s image, read:  “25 POUNDS,” “CHARLES III,” and the letters “D. G. REX. F. D.” meaning “By the grace of God, King” in Latin.

Security Features

Texture motion on the background image gives movement to the waves imprinted as you move the coin. As the viewing angle changes, the padlock on the lower left turns into a trident. The shield received tincture lines to highlight the flag, and the micro-text “Decus et Tutamen” was engraved on the reverse design encircling the Britannia’s image.
