| Additional information |
Issued to mark Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee — her 70th year on the throne, a milestone no British monarch had previously reached — this coin was among the final commemorative pieces approved during her lifetime. She died in September 2022, roughly four months after the jubilee celebrations concluded, making the entire issue an inadvertent farewell as much as a celebration.
