2012 Canada $300 Queen's Diamond Jubilee Pure Gold Coin with Canadian Diamond (No Tax)
On February 6, 1952, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II ascended to the thrones of England and the six Commonwealth realms that recognized her as their head of state at that time, including Canada. As millions around the world watched her coronation in Westminster Abbey - the first televised British coronation - they could not know that they were witnessing the inauguration of a reign that would last well into the next millennium.
Today, Queen Elizabeth II is the reigning monarch of England and sixteen Commonwealth realms. She is also Head of the fifty-four-member Commonwealth of Nations.
The year 2012 marks the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II - a celebration around the world of the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty's succession to the throne.
Celebrations in Canada, as around the world, acknowledge Queen Elizabeth II's lifetime dedication and service to her subjects, to the Commonwealth, and to innumerable charitable causes.
Queen Elizabeth II is one of only two British monarchs to have celebrated her Diamond Jubilee, after Queen Victoria in 1897.
