In Memoriam - Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

The death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II during the afternoon of September 8, 2022, brought with it the end of two incredible stories — the 70-year reign of our longest reigning monarch and the 96-year life of a remarkable woman, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

As the sad news was shared around the world, the Royal Family and the people of the United Kingdom were joined by millions more in Commonwealth nations and countries across the globe in solemn mourning.

An inspiration - An Icon - A Queen

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was many things to many people, but to us all, she has been a beacon of grace and dignity to the very end. She will forever hold a unique position in the long history of the United Kingdom and a firm place in the hearts and memories of billions of people all over the world.

Since 1952, and through seven decades of enormous change the Queen’s portrait and cypher have been a constant – a reassuring part of our everyday lives, from our coins, banknotes, stamps, postboxes, and passports. Her imprint is indelible, as her portrait is one of the most captured visages of our time.

The Memorial Tribute to our Nation's Matriarch

As the nation reflects on a reign like no other, The Queen Elizabeth II 'In Memoriam' commemorative has been issued. The poignant dual portrait design by commonwealth coin designer Joel Iskowitz beautifully bookends her Majesty’s reign. In the foreground is the portrait of the young queen at the time of her Accession in 1952, behind which is the respectful and contemporary portrait of our dignified Head of State in her final Platinum Jubilee year.

The Memorial Wreath reverse features the flowers of the nations of the United Kingdom: roses, thistles, shamrocks, and daffodils are interspersed with the Queen’s favourite flower Lily-of-the-Valley, which held special associations with Her Majesty ever since it featured in her coronation bouquet in 1953.

Layered in Pure Silver & Framed in Piano Black Lacquer

Befitting the solemnity of our national commemoration, the Queen Elizabeth II 'In Memoriam' Commemorative is layered in pure silver, the conjoined portrait framed in piano black lacquer applied by skilled craftsmen.  Struck to a PROOF finish — the highest quality possible, it is an eternal tribute to an exceptional life of dedication and service. 

A Unique Memorial Wreath Design 

The reverse of the Queen Elizabeth II 'In Memoriam' Commemorative is a magnificent floral tribute to Her Majesty; a beautifully designed memorial wreath arranged with the flowers of the United Kingdom.  Roses of England, thistles of Scotland, shamrocks of Ireland and Daffodils of Wales are entwined with the Queen's favourite flower — lily of the valley. Each individual flower and petal was painstakingly hand drawn by commonwealth coin designer Joel Iskowitz, then sculpted by skilled artists, recreating Mr. Iskowitz's exceptional artwork in bas-relief.
