eBay Cheats & Copyright Thieves
moorgatehallin eBay Copyright Theft
moorgatehall stole our 2007 1oz Gold Britannia Photographs to use on eBay, without our permission. Totally dishonest.
Image theft is endemic on eBay, and most sellers appear not to care whether their buyers are deceived.
High eBay Feedback is No Guarantee of Integrity or Honesty
When we wrote this page, this eBay member's feedback was 2801, with 100% positive, according to eBay.
eBay Copyright Thieves
Many eBay vendors use our coin photographs to sell inferior quality coins on eBay. These eBay members are dishonest and should be avoided.
We believe eBay profits from IP rights infringements (copyright theft), and does so knowingly, only removing infringing items reluctantly, if at all.

Mintages of Gold Bullion Britannia Coins (BU not PROOF)
This Guide has been written to try to establish the Most Accurate Mintage Figures for Gold Bullion Britannia Coins which were first introduced in 1987. I set out below my summary of the known mintage figures for Gold Bullion Britannia Coins and I will keep this Guide updated if any readers can supply additional information to me at my ebay ref which is moorgatehall or my email at moorgatehall @ btconnect.com.
Mintage figures for Gold Proof Britannia Coins and Sets are relatively easy to ascertain from one or more of the Royal Mint, the Certificates of Authenticity, Krause, Spink etc.
However Accurate Mintage Figures for Gold Bullion Britannia Coins are much more difficult to find. Spink seems to give a good indication of whether or not each Gold Bullion Britannia Coin was issued or not in a particular year but has no mintage figures. The Chard website has some mintage figures for the £100(1oz) Coins 1990 to 1996. Krause does not seem to have much useful information on Gold Bullion Britannia Coins.
Here is a Summary of Mintage Figures for Gold Bullion Britannia Coins :-
Year £100(1oz) £50(0.5oz) £25(0.25oz) £10(0.1oz)
1987 2,500? ???? ???? ????
1988 ???? ???? ???? ????
1989 ???? ???? ???? ????
1990 5,208 ???? ???? ????
1991 8,853 ???? ???? ????
1992 8,012 ???? ???? ????
1993 24,689 ???? ???? ????
1994 14,479 ???? ???? ????
1995 8,042 ???? ???? ????
1996 8,275 ???? ???? ????
1997 2,500? None None None

2003 2,500? None None ????
2004 None None None None
2005 None None None None
2006 None None None None
2007 2,000? ???? ???? ????
2008
I believe the above figures to be reasonably accurate but I can accept no resposibility for their accuracy. ???? means some coins were issued but I don't yet know the mintage.

What's Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic coin and gold coin images on the internet. We strongly object when lazy and dishonest people decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, doing so in competition with us.
Copyright theft is dishonest. We recommend you avoid doing business with dishonest dealers.
The vendor is not only cheating us by stealing our copyright images, he is fraudulently or ignorantly misleading and deceiving all potential buyers. Gaining pecuniary advantage by deception is the definition of fraud.
