| 裏面の説明 | The reverse, designed by Emma Noble to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Coronation, features a bold and finely detailed depiction of St Edward's Crown dominating the field. The crown is rendered with exceptional relief, showing the velvet cap, arched framework adorned with acanthus leaf ornaments, rows of pearls, and the characteristic monde surmounted by a cross pattée at the apex. The circumscription TO REIGN AND SERVE A VOW MADE GOOD arcs around the upper portion of the field in evenly spaced capital letters, with the engraver's initials appearing discreetly at lower right. The polished proof fields provide a sharp contrast to the intricately worked surfaces of the crown. |

The 2013 coronation anniversary issue marks sixty years from June 2, 1953, when Elizabeth II was crowned at Westminster Abbey in a ceremony broadcast live on BBC television — the first coronation ever televised, drawing an estimated 27 million viewers in Britain alone. The piedfort format, struck at twice the standard planchet depth, originates from a French medieval practice of producing presentation-weight pieces for official record-keeping; the Royal Mint revived it for collector issues in 1982.
Piedforts of this type are struck in very limited numbers against polished dies on individually prepared blanks.
