Queen Elizabeth II was crowned at Westminster Abbey on the 2nd June, 1953. She had acceded to the British throne on the death of her father, King George VI, the previous year. 60 years on, in 2013, The Royal Mint looked back on the beginning of Elizabeth II's reign with this coronation anniversary platinum proof Five Pound coin. Only 106 of these 99.95% fine platinum coins have been issued by the Mint and they feature a beautiful engraving of the Imperial State Crown on the reverse by designer and engraver Emma Noble. Part of the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom, this crown is traditionally worn by a monarch after their coronation and has been worn by The Queen for state occasions, such as the opening of Parliament. The current version of the Imperial State Crown was made in 1937 and is made of gold, silver and platinum and is adorned with 2,901 precious stones. The coin's legend, positioned around the crown, takes inspiration from a speech made on Her Majesty's coronation day: 'TO REIGN AND SERVE · A VOW MADE GOOD'. This crown motif is paired with Ian Rank-Broadley's fourth official coinage portrait to the obverse. This double-weight piedfort piece weighs 94.20 grams, has a diameter of 38.61 millimetres and is issued in the original Royal Mint packaging, which consists of a presentation box and certificate of authenticity. It's struck to finest proof standard, which is a superior finish to the coins found in normal circulating change. An excellent gift idea for any follower of the Royal Family or coin collector.
