In September 2015, Queen Elizabeth became the longest-reigning monarch in British history. Now in 2022, she celebrates her Platinum Jubilee, which marks 70 years as queen. The British government has already declared a banking holiday in June 2022 as part of the once-in-a-lifetime celebration in honor of Her Majesty’s anniversary. But this commemoration is not limited to the Queen’s native land; her Platinum Jubilee is an occasion recognized by the entire globe. It is a chance for all of us to acknowledge the tremendous impact she has had on the world.
Dual portraits of Queen Elizabeth II are depicted on the obverse of 2022 Proof Silver Australian Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Coins. One is from 1953 and represents the first portrait of Her Majesty ever used for British coinage. The other is the popular Jody Clark design from 2015 depicting the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem. The weight, purity, year, denomination, and country of origin are listed along the rim as well.

A decorative branch is included in the design and features a rose, thistle, shamrock, and Australian wattle. An inscription reads H.M. Queen Elizabeth II 1952 2022.
