Comment

Depicted on this 5 oz. fine silver tribute, the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II was a ceremony laden with centuries of tradition, but the event also marked the dawn of a new, modern era for our young nation and for its 27-year-old queen. Few who witnessed the coronation on June 2, 1953, could have predicted the advancements that would be achieved during Queen Elizabeth II’s unprecedented long reign. Having already vowed to devote her life to serving others in 1947, Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation oath further bound her to a lifetime of service, duty and devotion to her people: “the things which I have here before promised, I will perform and keep.” (Royal Canadian Mint)
