----------------------------------------------------------------------

The most revered of all the British Crown Jewels, the rarely seen

coronation crown inspired this coin’s reverse.


It is the revered symbol of royal authority, history and tradition.

The centuries-old St. Edward’s Crown is only worn once in a

monarch’s reign and only at the very moment of crowning—the

moment when the historic headpiece is reverently placed upon 

the new sovereign’s head, marking the culmination of accession.


Its crosses pattée inspired this fine silver coin’s reverse, where the

embellishment that resembles the cross is regally plated with gold

and adorned with colored glass stones.


A stone-adorned nod to the coronation crown.


Special features

The coronation crown. The centerpiece of the British Crown
Jewels, the centuries-old St. Edward’s Crown used to crown
Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, and now His Majesty King Charles III
in 2023 inspired this extraordinary fine silver collectible.

Matte proof finish. A satin field ensures all eyes are on the
crown-inspired design.

Popular with collectors. Previous crown- and tiara-themed coins
sold out quickly. Mintage is limited to 6,000 coins worldwide.

Includes serialized certificate. The Royal Canadian Mint
certifies all of its collector coins.


Colored glass stones

This artistic interpretation of the iconic cross pattée is adorned
with colorful glass stones that stand in beautifully for some of the
crown’s precious and semi-precious stones.


Gold plating

Gold plating adds a regal shine to the reverse design, where the
specially shaped embellishment is a representation of the crown’s
distinctive cross.


Rarely seen

St. Edward’s Crown is exclusively used to crown British


sovereigns and is only worn once in a reign. It is rarely removed


from the Tower of London, meaning this representation of its front


cross pattée may be the closest you’ll get to the real thing.




DID YOU KNOW?

Heavy is the head that wears this crown, which weighs 2.23

kilograms (almost five pounds). From 1702 until 1911, the St.

Edward’s Crown was simply carried during each coronation

procession and placed on the altar in Westminster Abbey for the

ceremony, but never actually worn by the new monarch—it was

thought to be too heavy. That changed in 1911, when King George

V was crowned with the St. Edward’s Crown, and it has crowned

all British monarchs since.


Did you know?....


When the St. Edward’s Crown was commissioned in 1661, the

cost of buying the gems was deemed too prohibitive; instead, the

jewels were rented for each coronation and replaced with imitation

stones for public viewing. Its jewels were set permanently in 1911.


Packaging


The coin comes with a Mint issued black Royal Canadian Mint-

branded clamshell case with a black beauty box.
