The Royal Mint's partnership with the United States Mint began in 2024. Gordon Summers and Joseph Menna, Chief Engravers of the two institutions, created a coin design together — their debut as a design duo. The Royal Mint presents it as a physical expression of the special relationship, the phrase Winston Churchill used in 1946 for the bond between the United Kingdom and the United States.
Since then the design has returned to bullion every year. The 2025 issue was limited to 5,000 one-ounce gold coins, and according to The Royal Mint's product listing the 2026 issue keeps the same limit. For the debut year, 2024, dealers quoted a bullion mintage of 11,000 coins, so the two later years are noticeably smaller.
The Royal Mint includes the 2026 coin in its 2026 bullion range and also offers the design as a 1 oz silver coin. This page covers the gold version only.
The obverse carries Martin Jennings' portrait of King Charles III and the £100 face value. It is the same portrait The Royal Mint uses on its bullion coins of the Charles III reign, so on this side the 2026 coin cannot be told apart from 2024 or 2025 — the date sits on the reverse.
The composition follows the idea of court cards: Britannia and Liberty are mirrored like the figures on a playing card and share the field with equal prominence. Britannia wears a helmet and holds her trident, while Liberty raises a flaming torch. The Royal Mint links the two figures with fortitude and freedom and treats them as symbols of each nation's identity.
The 2026 date is part of the reverse design. The Royal Mint's product listing does not name any of the optical security features of the classic Britannia for this issue — no latent image, surface animation, tincture lines or micro-text. Judge authenticity by weight, diameter and the sharpness of the relief rather than by those features.
GoldInvest24 offers coins from state mints, including The Royal Mint — an active member of the LBMA. Shipments are insured and packed discreetly. Other years and versions are listed under Britannia gold coins, and the full range under gold coins.

All three Britannia and Liberty years share the specifications of the classic Britannia — they differ from it in the reverse and the mintage limit. The American Gold Eagle also shows Liberty, after the design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, but it is struck in 22-carat gold (91.67% gold), so it weighs more for the same troy ounce of fine gold. All one-ounce coins are collected under 1 oz gold coins.
The 2026 coin is the third bullion issue of the design, after 2024 and 2025. The Royal Mint describes it as a return of Britannia and Liberty in a 2026-dated design, limited to 5,000 one-ounce gold coins.
The Royal Mint limits the mintage to 5,000 coins, the same as for the 2025 issue. For the 2024 issue, dealers quoted 11,000 bullion coins.
The Royal Mint's product listing does not name a latent image, surface animation or micro-text for this issue, all of which are known from the Britannia with Philip Nathan's reverse. Check the coin by its 31.1035 g of fine gold, 32.69 mm diameter and the quality of the relief.
The American Gold Eagle is struck by the United States Mint in 22-carat gold (916.7), with a $50 face value and Liberty on the obverse. The Britannia and Liberty coin is 999.9 gold from The Royal Mint, with a £100 face value and both figures together on the reverse.
Yes. As a 999.9 gold coin it is VAT-exempt in the EU under Directive 2006/112/EC (art. 344-356), and in Poland under art. 122 of the VAT Act. Separately, the UK Capital Gains Tax exemption only concerns UK tax residents.
The coin contains exactly one troy ounce of fine gold, so its metal value follows the ounce price directly. Current quotes are on the gold price page at GoldInvest24.
