Queen's Silver Jubilee Commemorative Crown

Issued to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne in 1952.

This crown, as with the 1977 crown, had a face value of twenty-five new pence. Because it was primarily a commemorative coin rather than being intended to circulate, it was presumably not considered necessary to include a mark of value in the inscription.

Obverse

ELIZABETH II D G REG F D
1977

Reverse

An original design by Arnold Machin, showing the ampulla and anointing spoon that were used in the coronation ceremony. These had been renovated for the coronation of Charles II, are believed to date respectively from the 14th and 12th centuries, and to be the oldest items in the Regalia to have remained in continual use.

There is no inscription on the reverse.
