Introducing the exquisite and exclusive Imperial State Crown collectible coin: a true gem in pure silver. With only 8,000 coins available, this is a must-have for every Royal Family collector. Canadian history intertwines with the Royal Family, making this coin even more special.
Celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s historic reign with this remarkable silver commemorative coin. Featuring her image on the front and double-dated for added significance, it’s a stunning tribute to her remarkable life and legacy.
The Life and Legacy of Queen Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth ruled for over 70 years–longer than any British monarch in history. In 2014, the Queen started a program aiming to support young people with challenging life situations and great potential, to reach the heights they are truly capable of. This was called The Queen’s Young Leaders.
This fits with Her Majesty’s passion for discovering “people who do unsung things”. The Queen herself often was the one to confer titles on people from all walks of life, encouraging them to achieve their goals. Before she was even crowned, the young Elizabeth one day said, “There is none of my father’s subjects from the oldest to the youngest whom I do not wish to greet.”
In addition to elevating the common folk, her Majesty was also involved with many public service organizations. One of her passions was environmental and wildlife preservation. A dedication to a life of service and duty was apparent throughout her life, and that is how many people remember her.
An Immaculate Coin for an Important Life
While Queen Elizabeth II is no longer with us physically, her impact on the world will last for many years to come. The nation of Canada remembers her today with this pure silver Imperial State Crown collectible coin.
The reverse side of the coin features the Royal Cypher, a symbol of the Queen’s sovereignty. On this same side of the coin are four crystals. Since 1953, there have been four effigies of Her Majesty on circulation coins, and the four crystals each symbolize one of these. To further embellish and ornament the reverse side of the coin, blue and green glass stones that remind us of her Majesty’s jewellery collection surround the coin’s edge, representing jewels that have historically adorned the crown.
Speaking of the crown, there are actually two crowns featured in this coin’s design. The coronation crown is included in the Royal Cypher. This is also known as St. Edward’s Crown. And atop her Majesty’s head on the obverse, you can see the Imperial State Crown she wore on formal occasions. This crown is also emulated symbolically with the glass stones surrounding the Royal Cypher on the reverse.
This coin is a special matte proof which finishes the background of the coin in a wonderful satin style. The four effigies mentioned before are all positioned next to each other on the coin’s obverse, a tribute to Her Majesty’s long life and grace through her years.
