This year marks the 70th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation, which took place at Westminster Abbey on the 2nd June 1953.

On 2nd June 1953, a young queen barely 27 years old, seated in the King Edward’s Chair as so many before her, took on the profound responsibilities of state when she was crowned Queen Elizabeth II in Westminster Abbey. An estimated 27 million people in Britain watched the ceremony on television whilst vast crowds lined the procession route in spite of the rain. No one could have known she would go on to become Britain’s best loved and longest reigning monarch.

Alongside our latest sovereign range, we will be sending our clients a copy of the Evening Standard Newspaper, dated the 5th May 2023; the day before King Charles III’s coronation. Here, we will be dissecting the main content from that very newspaper…

Certainly, there will be special coins issued to commemorate the event, but what may surprise you is that of the five monarchs to precede King Charles III, only three of them had crown coins issued for their coronation year, and of those only two were commemorative designs.
There are five particular coins that bring together those special coronation year issues, with two others to mark significant jubilees of the five crowned monarchs to precede King Charles III. Here is everything you need to know about them…
