The portrait, created by Canadian artist Bonnie Ross, depicts Elizabeth II at the age of her sapphire jubilee. The design echoes the style of The Queen’s effigies that have appeared on coins-the face as the central element, shown from the neck up, facing right. The Queen is portrayed with a three-quarter view instead of the traditional side profile, and is flanked by two rows of maple leaves, alluding to her connection to Canada. Her gentle smile reveals the wisdom and experience that are uniquely hers as the longest reigning monarch in Canadian history. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has reigned for more than 65 years, surpassing her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria who reigned for 63 years, seven months and two days. She is also the first British monarch to reach the historic milestone of a sapphire jubilee, celebrated on February 6, 2017-the 65th anniversary of her ascension to the throne. The Queen’s reign has been characterized by numerous firsts. Her coronation was the first to be televised. She has travelled more than any other monarch, and figured in many historic overseas visits. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has arguably been the most visible monarch in history, and the most recognized and respected matriarch worldwide. Repoussé is an ancient metalworking technique in which the metal is pushed forward to create shapes, contours and sculpture that appear on the reverse side. Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a black beauty box. This item is in the category “Coins & Paper Money\Coins: Canada\Commemorative”.
