| Beschrijving voorzijde | Fifth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicted as a right-facing draped bust wearing a jewelled State Crown and a drop earring, rendered in high relief after the design by Jody Clark. The engraver's initials J.C appear in the field below the truncation. The circumferential legend reads ELIZABETH II · DEI · GRA · REG · FID · DEF · 2019, disposed around the upper and lower periphery of the heptagonal flan, with the date 2019 positioned at the top. The deeply mirrored proof fields provide strong contrast against the finely frosted portrait. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Britannia bullion and proof series was relaunched in gold in 1987, initially with a .9167 fineness deliberately chosen to match the historic crown gold standard used in English coinage from the Tudor period onward. That fineness — 22 carat — was a conscious rejection of the .9999 standard adopted by competitors like the Canadian Maple Leaf, prioritizing hardness and scratch resistance in a coin intended to actually change hands as bullion.
By 2019 the series had incorporated a rotating array of security features, including a tincture line effect milled into the surface that shifts under light — a direct response to sophisticated counterfeiting operations targeting the Chinese bullion market in the mid-2010s.
