Description
The 2025 Bond of the 2000s 1oz Gold Coin is the fifth release in The Royal Mint’s “Six Decades of 007” bullion coin series, celebrating the enduring legacy of the world’s most iconic spy, James Bond.
First brought to life by Ian Fleming in 1953, James Bond became a British cultural icon with his 1962 cinematic debut. Over the decades, the MI6 agent has captivated global audiences, evolving with each portrayal by a succession of talented actors.
This coin pays homage to the Bond films of the 2000s, marking a transformative era that saw Pierce Brosnan’s final appearance in Die Another Day and Daniel Craig’s groundbreaking debut in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. This decade revolutionised the franchise with cutting-edge cinematography and a darker, grittier narrative edge. The memorable hovercraft is featured prominently, immortalised from its explosive appearance in the opening sequence of Die Another Day, representing the spectacular action that defined this pivotal decade in the Bond legacy.
Why buy 1 oz gold coins?
Like other gold coins, 1 oz gold Britannia coins are exempt from VAT in the United Kingdom and all other EU member states.
They are an excellent method for dividing your precious metal holdings into smaller portions. In actuality, a large gold bar is not always the optimal choice. Even if you purchase gold bars at a lower price per gramme, a large gold bar will limit the liquidity of your investment.
Purchasing 1-ounce gold bullion coins increases the divisibility and liquidity of your investment. Instead of selling an entire gold bar when you need cash, you can sell a few gold coins. Consequently, it is worthwhile to pay a slightly higher premium.
