2023 St. Helena 1 oz Silver Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Proof

Description: Queen Elizabeth II: Gone But Not ForgottenIn the year following Queen Elizabeth II’s passing on September 8, 2022, many mints have released coins that paid tribute to her memory and legacy, but none have packed more of an emotional impact than this coin lovingly struck by the East Indian Company. Ostensibly a Britannia coin, the image of Great Britain’s female allegorical personification is depicted with her head hung low in mourning while just to her left is The Queen’s cypher and the dates of her birth and death, “1926–2022.”A Design That Reflects A Nation’s GriefThe design was inspired by an illustration from an issue of The Sphere magazine published on January 26, 1901 to mark the death of Elizabeth II’s great-great-grandmother, Queen Victoria. That design has been born again more than a century later on this gleaming coin struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver that shows the famous warrior and protector of Great Britain’s shores along with her ever-present trident and shield, her Corinthian helmet pushed back from her face to reveal a face wrought with sadness at the passing of the nation’s beloved monarch. You’ll also want to make note of the inscription along the rim of the coin that reads, “O SERVES ANIME DIMIDUM MEÆ,” which is Latin for “Oh, servant half of my soul,” a loving tribute to Queen Elizabeth II’s lifetime of duty and service. Proof CoinComes with CoA and Display Box
