Description
First Platinum Jubilee
In February 2022, Her Majesty the Queen will celebrate seven decades on the throne. She succeeded her father at the age of 25 in 1952 and was crowned the next year.
No previous British monarch has celebrated a Platinum Jubilee so it’s no surprise that The Royal Mint has gone all out on its range of commemorative coinage, issued just ahead of the anniversary.
A special reverse for the 2022 Sovereign was commissioned to mark the occasion and now we’ve been offered a comprehensive range of £5 Crowns, 50ps and large precious metal pieces with special designs, inspired by historic coinage and Elizabeth II’s life of service.
Jubilee Commemorative
This gold coin features two new designs, both the work of veteran coinage artist John Bergdahl.
His obverse, used only for coins in the Platinum Jubilee collection features an equestrian portrait of Elizabeth II, similar in style to that featured on previous jubilee Crown coins. The legend reads ‘ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 200 POUNDS’ with the date below, cut by the tail of a garter motif.
Bergdahl’s reverse draws inspiration from historic Royal Mint coinage and shows the crowned royal arms, surrounded by a garter and draped with a mantle, reminiscent of the garment she wore during her 1953 coronation. The anniversary dates (1952 and 2022) are shown below.
The edge on this edition is milled.
