Reverse description
There are two photographs - the first was taken 4 days after her coronation. It shows the Queen as she stands on the balcony of Buckingham palace with her husband his Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and a young Prince Charles and Princess Anne. The photograph on the bottom was taken at the Trooping the Colour in 2012 for Her Majesty`s birthday parade. With her beloved husband, the late Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh, she watches as the Royal Air Force fly pass with their family from the balcony of Buckingham Palace after the Trooping The Colour at the Horse Guards Parade in London. The photographs are divided by a sceptre entwined with sprigs of oak inspired by the House of Windsor Crest, with St Edward`s crown, the official coronation crown featured at both ends and the shield of the Royal Coat of Arms in the centre.

The inscription reads `I declare
before you all that my whole life whether it be long or short
shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great
imperial family to which we all belong` taken from
Princess Elizabeth`s speech in 1947 as she dedicated her life to
the service of the Commonwealth.
