| Reverse description | Rectangular gold bar-format reverse depicting a dynamic full-length figure of Britannia standing amid crashing waves, rendered in a geometric, faceted artistic style.

The legend GREAT BRITAIN appears at the upper left and the date 2026 at the upper right, with the fineness AU .99999 inscribed vertically along the right margin. The overall composition is bold and modern, with angular geometric detailing contrasting against the flowing waves at Britannia's feet. |

| Additional information |
Five-nines gold — .99999 fineness — remains genuinely difficult to produce at scale, requiring electrolytic refining beyond the standard four-nines threshold used for most bullion coinage. At 0.311 g, this is a fractional issue in the strictest sense, containing almost exactly 1/100th of a troy ounce.
