Comments

Issued by Heritage Coins.

The sixth coin in the set. The first five being silver and the final one in Gold. 

This modern interpretation of the 1953 Coronation Crown reverse, marks the moment when The Queen spoke jer Coronation Oath (taken from The Order of Service for the Coronation) and swore service to the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.

It was unknowable at the time that she would become the nation's oldest and longest reigning monarch and the only British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee.
