Beschrijving keerzijde A quatrefoil composition centred on a St. Edward's Crown in high relief, surrounded by four circular lobes each containing a floral emblem of the British Isles: the Tudor rose of England at the top, the Scottish thistle to the left, the Irish shamrock to the right, and a stylised floral motif at the base. The birth year 1926 and the anniversary year 2016 are incorporated within the design field. The encircling Latin legend NOVEM DECENNIIS GLORIOSE PERACTIS, meaning 'Nine Decades Gloriously Accomplished', runs around the outer border, separated by a beaded inner circle.

Aanvullende informatie

Gibraltar's coin program has long operated as a commercial issuing operation rather than a reflection of genuine monetary need — the territory's actual currency is the Gibraltar pound, and pieces like this exist primarily for the collector market facilitated by the Pobjoy Mint. The piedfort format, doubling the standard flan thickness, originated in medieval France as a presentation strike for officials verifying coin standards, a function entirely disconnected from anything happening here.

Elizabeth II turned 90 on 21 April 2016. At that point she had already surpassed Victoria as Britain's longest-reigning monarch, having passed that milestone the previous September.
