The coronation of Queen Elizabeth II took place on 2 June 1953 over 12 months after her accession. Prime Ministers and leading citizens of the Commonwealth countries, representatives of foreign states, hundreds of thousands of Britons and over 200,000 tourists descended upon London for the coronation.

The Queen rode from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey in the ornate gold state coach. During the coronation ceremony Elizabeth swore the coronation oath whereby she undertook to rule according yo law, to exercise justice with mercy and to maintain the Church of England.

She was then anointed, blessed and consecrated and crowned by the archbishop - at which point trumpets sounded, the Abbey bells pealed, and the guns at the Tower of London saluted. 60 Years on we celebrate this huge milestone with a fantastic Medallion and Stamp Cover.

This cover features Commemorative Medallion and Stamp, housed in a full colour envelope.
