QEII 1953 Coronation coin and stamp set1 × £199.00 Having reached an incredible seventy years of reign in 2022, Queen Elizabeth II is Britain’s longest reigning monarch, and has celebrated many royal jubilee milestones as a result.
Throughout this blog, we will be exploring the four royal jubilees that the Queen has achieved and the key events that took place during each one.
Her Majesty The Queen became the first monarch in British history to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee; an incredible reign of seventy years on the 6th February 2022. As a result, numerous celebrations and events have taken place throughout the year, and a four-day UK bank holiday weekend has been granted from Thursday 2nd to Sunday 5th June.
From Trooping the Colour to street parties across the country, here is everything you need to know about the 2022 Platinum Jubilee celebratory weekend.
Featured as our Product of the Month for May, we have the incredible ‘The Longest Reigning Monarchs Milestone Jubilees 1897 and 2022 Silver Set’. This set brings together the official British silver medal for Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee with the official British silver 50p coin for Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee.
The year 2022 not only celebrates the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, which is the first such jubilee in British History, but also the celebration of our second-longest reigning monarch’s Diamond Jubilee; Queen Victoria’s. This royal jubilee took place in 1897, a celebration for a remarkable sixty years of reign, marking 2022 as the 125th anniversary.
Having ascended to the throne at only 18 years old on 20 June 1837, Queen Victoria ruled for over 63 years and celebrated her life and reign through a series of Royal Jubilees.
Now, she is Britain’s second-longest reigning monarch, and throughout this blog we will be exploring the two jubilees that she celebrated during her incredible reign.
With this year’s celebration of the Platinum Jubilee for Queen Elizabeth II – the first such jubilee in British history – also comes the celebration of our second-longest reigning monarch’s Diamond Jubilee. That celebration was in the year 1897 for Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee; an incredible 60-year reign.
In honour of our two longest reigning monarchs, Hattons of London have two coin sets that bring together British pieces in celebration of these two important royal jubilees…
