This 1995 collectors set from The Royal Mint contains the following four gold proof coins, plus a gold-plated medal:
Each coin in this set features the classic Britannia design, created by Philip Nathan for the first of these British coins, issued in 1987. The inscription on the largest coin reads '· ONE · OUNCE · FINE · · GOLD · · BRITANNIA · 1995 ·'.
The obverses all show Raphael Maklouf's elegant third coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Diamond Diadem with '· ELIZABETH · II · DEI · GRATIA · REGINA · F · D ·' around and the denomination below.
Before 2013, The Royal Mint struck all its gold Britannias in solid 22-carat (91.67% fine) gold. That means that the actual gold weight of the four proof coins in this set is 57.75 grams or 1.8567 troy ounces of pure precious metal.
This was the only gold Britannia set issued in 1995, and the Mint only authorised the release of 500 sets. This complete example is supplied in the original leather presentation case, complete with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
