Gold Britannia Proof Sets
Gold Britannias were first issued in 1987. Four coin Britannia proof sets have been issued every year since 1987, switching to a 5 coin set from 2013 onwards.
From 1990, the mintage for the sets has been very low.

Sets from 1990 onwards have a silver content in their alloy, making them a more attractive yellow colour, in our opinion.
