| Beschrijving voorzijde | Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the George IV State Diadem, as engraved by James Butler. The sovereign's portrait is rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished field, with the royal title legend disposed around the periphery. The initials 'JB' appear below the truncation, attributing the design to the engraver. This portrait was produced as a limited-release commemorative effigy specifically for this issue. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large, finely detailed rendering of the St. Edward's Crown — the Coronation Crown — dominates the centre of the field, surmounted by a cross pattée on an orb. The crown is depicted with fleurs-de-lis, a patterned band, and ermine base, all rendered in high relief with exceptional detail befitting a proof issue. The dates '1952' and '2015' flank the crown to left and right respectively, commemorating the span from the Queen's accession to her becoming the longest-reigning British monarch. The inscription 'ONE CROWN' appears in the lower exergual arc, with the engraver's initials 'JB' visible to the lower right of the crown. A fine dentilated border runs around the entire circumference of the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The coin was issued to mark Elizabeth II surpassing Queen Victoria's reign length on 9 September 2015 — at that point 63 years and 216 days. Victoria herself never acknowledged the milestone while alive; Elizabeth, characteristically, deflected attention from it in a public statement the same day. The Royal Mint released several versions simultaneously, the silver proof among them, timed precisely to the date of the record rather than a calendar year end.
