2016 Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 90th Birthday High Relief 2oz Gold Proof Coin

On 21 April 2016, Queen Elizabeth II will celebrate her 90th birthday. Each Commonwealth country traditionally celebrates The Queen’s birthday on a designated day in May or June. In the United Kingdom, it falls on the first, second, or third Saturday in June, which was chosen for the fine weather in the northern hemisphere, making it a preferable time for a public holiday.

The coin designs depict St Edward’s Crown surrounded by wattle branches

The Perth Mint will release no more than 300 of the H.M. Queen Elizabeth II 90th Birthday High Relief 2oz Gold Proof Coin.

The 2oz gold coin is presented in a wooden Perth Mint display case and beautifully illustrated shipper, and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

The 2oz gold coin’s high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.

This coin is only available to Australian based customers.

This coin will not be posted overseas.
