Celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s centennial with a gold and diamond pairing.
Released in advance to help mark the occasion with distinction, this pure gold fractional set is a centennial tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, whose historic reign significantly shaped this country’s history and identity. All four coins are double-dated to commemorate what would have been her 100th birthday (“1926-2026”) and feature a maple leaf alongside the late monarch’s Royal Cypher. The 1 oz. coin features two additional elements: an incuse maple leaf, and a radiant diamond—Queen Elizabeth II’s birthstone—symbolizing both her legacy of steadfast commitment to her duties and her profound impact on the world.
Featuring the four effigies that span a seven-decade reign.
Special features
Packaging
Your four coins are individually encapsulated and presented together in a red lacquer case with a black outer box.
Features
Each coin in this four-piece set is crafted in 99.99% pure gold with a reverse proof finish, but the 1 oz. coin has an extra-special feature: a sparkling diamond (Queen Elizabeth II’s birthstone) that honours her life and lasting legacy.
Each coin’s obverse features one of the four effigies of Queen Elizabeth II that graced Canadians coins during her decades-long reign.
In addition to its diamond, the 1 oz. coin is set apart by its recessed maple leaf, which is only struck incuse on the largest piece in this set.
Each reverse features the double dates “1926-2026” to mark the centenary of Queen Elizabeth II’s birth.
