In 2012 to celebrate the Queen‘s Diamond Jubilee, the Royal Mint released a very Limited Issue Royal Silver Proof 3 Coin Collection to celebrate this special occasion.
The set includes the United Kingdom £5 Five Pound Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver designed by Ian Rank Broadley and depicts two new portraits of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The Canadian $20 Twenty Dollar Silver Proof Coin depicts the Queen and Prince Philip with a charming decorative border consisting of floral emblems of the UK intertwined with Canadian Maple Leaves.
The Australia dodecagonal 50c Fifty Cent Silver Proof Coin depicts Australia’s national flower, the Golden Wattle, within an outline of St Edward’s Crown, the ultimate symbol of monarchy, all appropriately set within a multifaceted diamond shape.
The obverse design of all the coins is the stunning portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank Broadley.
These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
