2018 Great Britain £10 Sapphire Jubilee 5 Ounce Silver Proof
65 Years on the Throne – A lifetime in Your Collection
The pomp, tradition and splendor of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953 culminated a year of planning following the untimely passing of her Father, George VI, a year earlier. Despite being just 27, the beautiful new Queen was grace and dignity personified at her coronation. Great Britain – and the world – soon fell in love with the new monarch. Now, on the 65th anniversary of her coronation, that love affair continues with an exquisite silver proof that commemorates this historic milestone.
Issued by the British Royal Mint, these silver proofs are absolutely stunning! This five-ounce proof comes struck in 99.9% silver and features a wonderful new image of the Queen as she looked at her coronation on June 2, 1953. Based on a portrait done by society photographer Cecil Beaton, it shows her dressed in coronation robes and gown wearing the Imperial State Crown. She is also holding the scepter and orb against a backdrop of Westminster Abbey. The portrait now rests in the Royal Collection Trust. Upon seeing the portrait, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said it showed The Queen as “the gleaming figure whom Providence has brought to us in times when the present is hard and the future veiled.”
These 2018 Great Britain Sapphire Jubilee Silver Proofs are stunning not only for their beauty, but also for their size. Each legal-tender £10 proof measures 65 mm in diameter and comes in its own presentation case and accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity from the British Royal Mint.
