Celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee, this rare platinum piedfort was struck in an imposing double-thickness format. John Bergdahl’s distinctive equestrian portrait, inspired by earlier royal imagery and enhanced with the Garter, is paired with an elaborate reverse based on the Queen’s 1953 coronation robes and the coinage of William IV. Issued at double the thickness of the standard coin, this impressive piece ranks among the most desirable commemoratives of the Platinum Jubilee.
