About the 1 oz Platinum Britannia
It carries the Britannia design used across the range, offering platinum in one of the world's most recognised coin formats. Platinum is rarer than gold and is widely used in industry, especially in catalytic converters.
Platinum is rarer than gold and used heavily in industry, so its price depends on industrial demand as well as investment buying. That can make it move differently from gold, which is why some buyers hold a little platinum alongside gold and silver.
Buying and paying

At checkout your price is locked for 10 minutes while you confirm your order. You then pay by bank transfer (UK Faster Payments, SEPA or SWIFT), quoting your order number.
