At the centre, the Royal Cypher EIIR is prominently displayed. The commemorative legend arcs around the design, with the birth year and anniversary year flanking the cypher in the lower field, and the designer's initials GB present in the design. |

Issued to mark Elizabeth II's 95th birthday in April 2021, this was among the last major celebratory strikes before her death in September 2022. The Royal Mint had produced a similar large-format silver proof for her 90th birthday in 2016, establishing something of a pattern for significant decade-adjacent milestones — though ninety-fifth birthday issues are unusual by any royal mint's standards. At 156.3 grams of .999 silver, production runs for pieces at this specification are invariably small, and secondary market premiums tend to hold on issues tied to reigns that have since closed.
