1970 Royal Tour 50th Anniversary Five Crowns

Queen Elizabeth’s capacity to see beyond protocol has allowed her to understand the people of the Commonwealth better than any of her predecessors. Her 1970 tour of Australia and New Zealand profoundly altered her relationship with our nations. Insisting on meeting real folk from all walks of life, Her Majesty saw at a grass roots level the true reason for both countries’ enduring prosperity: people. In the first of her now-famous ‘Walkabouts,’ she met the everyday people whose role in shaping both countries was equally as important as a luncheon with a mayor or dinner with the PM. What Her Majesty took away from the tour was a greater understanding of who we are and what we are capable of achieving. The ‘1970 Royal Tour 50th Anniversary Five Crowns’ is a celebration of those days and also of a relationship between monarch and people that has grown richer with each passing year, available only from The Bradford Exchange.

The dates of the tour and a royal cypher, cast in valuable rhodium-platinum bring added provenance to the coin, as does an engraved replica of her signature, very much a stamp of approval from Her Majesty. Limited to 1,970 issues worldwide, this impressive coin is entirely layered with pure 24-carat gold with a genuine ‘amethyst’ crystal representing the colour of royalty. At 65mm in diameter and weighing 110 grams, coins of such proportions are struck to mark occasions of great importance.
