As the world celebrates the life of Queen Elizabeth II, we offer a new coin featuring a double portrait of Her Late Majesty by the esteemed artist David Cornell. The double portrait features Elizabeth at the beginning and end of a reign that lasted 70 years and 214 days. This is the longest reign of any British monarch in history. 

Coin Highlights:

When Elizabeth Alexandra Mary was born on April 21st, 1926, it was assumed by most that she would lead a quiet life out of the spotlight. After all, her Uncle Edward was the rightful heir to the throne, which meant her chances of becoming Queen were slim at best. But then the unthinkable happened: Following his accession, Edward fell in love with a divorcee from America and abdicated the throne. Suddenly her father George was king, which meant Elizabeth was now heir to the throne.
