| Additional information |
The Britannia platinum bullion series was introduced in 2018, marking the first time the Royal Mint had issued a platinum Britannia in a regular annual bullion format — earlier platinum Britannias existed only as one-off commemoratives. The 5th portrait of Elizabeth II, by sculptor Jody Clark, was the first royal effigy on a British coin produced through a digitally-sculpted process rather than traditional hand-carving in clay or plaster.
Platinum Britannias carry no statutory face value guarantee in the same commercial sense as the gold and silver equivalents — the £10 denomination is nominal, reflecting the fractional weight position in the series rather than any redeemable value.
