Sell a Gold Britannia Coin

When you’re ready to sell your gold Britannia coins, you deserve a process that’s simple, discreet, and rewarding. At Burlingtons Ltd., we make selling high-value items effortless, offering immediate payment and a personal service built on over 25 years of expertise.

Contact us whether you’re selling a single coin or a complete collection; our home valuation service allows you to discover the true value of your coins in complete comfort.

What are Gold Britannia Coins?

The Gold Britannia is one of the most iconic and respected coins ever produced by The Royal Mint. First introduced in 1987, it represents both British heritage and investment security. Each coin features Britannia, the female embodiment of the nation, a symbol of strength and integrity dating back to Roman times.

Gold Britannia coins are struck from 24-carat fine gold (99.99% purity since 2013) and are available in several denominations, including 1oz, ½oz, ¼oz, and 1/10oz. With new designs released annually, they appeal to both investors and collectors, admired for their artistry as much as their lasting value.

How to Identify Gold Britannia Coins

Authentic Britannia coins are instantly recognisable for their beauty and craftsmanship. Most feature Britannia standing with a trident and shield, though special editions show her in alternate poses. You’ll also find inscriptions of the coin’s weight, gold purity, and the year of issue.

Many collectors own proof editions or boxed gift sets with original certificates, which can further enhance their value. Even if your coins are not boxed, lightly worn, or part of an incomplete set, we can still offer a competitive valuation based on gold content, condition, and collectability.

If you’re unsure about the authenticity or market value of your coins, we can also help you verify them during a private, no-obligation valuation.

We have over 25 years of experience in the trade. Our professional and friendly service focuses on the values of reliability, honesty and trustworthiness. To sell your gold Britannia coins please get in touch with us to book your valuation.

I contacted Daniel by e-mail yesterday and he came out today to look at Mum's jewellery, that she no longer wanted to wear. She had been unable to sell these as jewellery and was only being offered gold scrap value. He gave what I felt was a fair scrap offer for the gold items and the money was transferred immediately into her account. Happy to recommend.

I contacted Burlingtons as had had a not too good experience with a popular TV advertised company who offer to buy old unwanted items . I sent photos of the silver cutlery which I wanted to sell , got an offer price which I thought was fair and sent the items by post . Next day delivery and got paid on the day and the cost of postage was covered . Very happy with the service that they offered

Difficult to know what to add after reading all of the great reviews! It was a long journey for Craig. He put us at ease. He was very thorough in explaining the valuations and sensitive realising I did not want to sell sentimental pieces. There was no pressure. We were pleased with the offer and the money was transferred immediately. Thank you Craig.

Fantastic Experience Selling Jewelry to Craig at Burlingtons Ltd. I recently sold a few pieces of jewelry to Burlingtons Ltd, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire process.

He took the time to carefully assess each piece and I never felt rushed or pressured into making a decision. His transparency and honesty were truly appreciated. Craig gave me a fair and competitive offer, which made the transaction feel smooth and trustworthy. If you’re looking to sell your jewelry, I highly recommend Craig at Burlingtons Ltd. He is knowledgeable, reliable, and makes the experience stress-free. I’ll definitely be returning in the future.

How Much Are Gold Britannia Coins Worth?

The value of a gold Britannia coin depends on several factors, including:

Age and year of issue
Condition and presentation
Rarity of the design or mint mark
Current gold prices per ounce
Collector demand

While some Britannia coins trade closely to the live gold price, others, particularly early editions or limited designs, command significant premiums.

We’ll provide an accurate, transparent valuation that reflects both metal value and collector appeal. We also use decades of market knowledge and an international network of collectors to ensure you receive the fairest market-competitive offer.

Why People Choose to Sell Their Gold Britannia Coins

There are many reasons you might consider selling your Britannia coins. Some people inherit them and prefer to convert them into something more meaningful. Others sell to fund property, travel, or investments. Some are simply adjusting their collections or downsizing.

We understand that selling valuable possessions can sometimes be emotional, especially when they carry family history. That’s why we handle interactions with discretion, empathy, and professionalism, ensuring you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way.

Whatever your reason, we make the experience private, pressure-free, and rewarding, always focused on achieving the best outcome for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are gold Britannias legal tender?

They are legal UK currency, though not used in circulation. Having the status of legal tender also means gold Britannias are exempt from Capital Gains Tax, making them particularly attractive to collectors and investors alike.

Can I sell damaged or incomplete Britannia sets?

Absolutely. Even single coins or incomplete sets hold value, and we will provide a fair valuation for each. However, we must note that damaged coins will be valued more by weight and gold content than anything else.
