This 1 oz gold standard bullion coin for 2021 is minted by Britain’s national mint, The Royal Mint.

Minted in 99.99% pure gold, the 2021 1 oz United Kingdom Gold Standard Bullion Coin was designed in 2016 to mark 200 years since the de facto introduction of the gold standard – tying the value of the British pound to that of gold

The journey to Britain’s adoption of a gold standard can be traced through The Royal Mint’s long history, including back to 1717 when Sir Isaac Newton issued a report that led to the gold guinea being assigned a fixed value. The Coinage Act of 1816 changed the financial system in Britain dramatically, and introduced a circulating gold coin; the iconic Sovereign. A new gold standard tying the value of The Sovereign to a precise measurement of gold was adopted to help stabilise the country’s war-torn economy, and by 1821, a gold standard was fully operational in Britain.

The Royal Mint is fully owned by His Majesty´s Treasury, and each year the Treasury attests to the authenticity and quality of all bullion coins that the Mint produces.

Each of these coins are graded as MS 70, which is the perfect score, on the NGC scale to 70. The coins are graded by the PCGS, a world class third party coin grader. These coins are thus of very high quality. The coins are also "First Strike" editions. Under PCGS regulations, that means that the coins have to be submitted for grading within 30 days of the coin being released. Collectors like "First Strike" coins because they leave the minting press first and are thus potentially of better quality compared to coins minted further down the line. 

The encapsulation ensures that the coin is well protected.
