On the 30th anniversary of the gold Britannia bullion coin, fine art student Louis Tamlyn has created a contemporary reverse design, reflecting a time of political change when the eyes of the world have often been on Britain. His design also contains a trident mint mark that celebrates these important anniversaries.

The one ounce gold proof coin was issued in sets only, not individually with a total Mintage of only 264 one ounce coins.

The reverse shows the standing figure of Britannia, in a style breaking with earlier traditional depictions. She is seen from the back, cradling her trident in one arm and holding a shield in the other hand (textured with concentric circles), and is wearing the familiar crested Corinthian helmet. Britannia's lower torso and legs are transformed into a map of Great Britain, with lines radiating outward from the centre of the coin.

To her right, the design displays the characteristic lines of the Union Jack.

Around, the inscription BRITANNIA 1 oz FINE GOLD 999.9 2017, interrupted in the right field by a trident privy mark with the numerals 30between its teeth, as a celebration of the 30th anniversary of the gold Britannia range.

The artist's initials LWT (for Louis Tamlyn) are between the trident mark and the 2 of 2017. The face value is on the obverse.
