- Pobjoy Mint is delighted to announce the release of the fourth coin to commemorate the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The coin has been issued on behalf of the Falkland Islands Government
- In 1952, British sculptor Mary Gaskell Gillick OBE's effigy design was selected from a field of seventeen to be used on general-circulation coinage for the new Queen Elizabeth II, first issued in 1953, one year after the Queen acceded to the throne. This portrait is called the First Definitive UK Coin Portrait. Gillick worked on the portrait between March and October 1952, with one sitting and close supervision by the Duke of Edinburgh. Gillick's design was notable for portraying the Queen uncrowned, and was the last to be used on the pre-decimal coinage.
- Therefore, we thought it was very apt to feature a double portrait of Her Majesty including the first and current effigy used in coinage over 70 years of service. The first effigy designed by Mary Gillick and the current effigy has been designed by Pobjoy Mint.
- Princess Elizabeth was staying at Treetops in Kenya with her husband Prince Philip when she heard of the death of her father King George VI, on 6 February 1952. Without delay, the Princess returned home where she was proclaimed ‘Queen Elizabeth II’. The new Queen‘s succession to the throne was proclaimed at an Accession Council. Nine months later, Her Majesty attended her first State Opening of Parliament where she ready and signed the Accession declaration. The design also incorporates the official emblem for The Queen's Platinum Jubilee which was selected as the winning entry in a competition run in conjunction with the Victoria & Albert Museum. The Platinum Jubilee will be celebrated in the United Kingdom in June 2022. This will be the first time any British Monarch has celebrated a Platinum Jubilee. The obverse of the coin features an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II produced exclusively by Pobjoy Mint.
