When Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II began her reign in 1952, the 25-year-old monarch could not have known the kinds of challenges Canada and the world would face, or how much progress she would witness.
Her Majesty’s historic long reign is beautifully represented by the double portrait reverse, which juxtaposes a portrait of Her Majesty today with one of her younger self in 1952, at the start of her reign
While remaining faithful to the artist’s original concept, RCM engravers studied countless portraits of Her Majesty to ensure likeness during the engraving process.
