A\u003cbr\u003esumptuous colour application over detailed engraving places a special emphasis on the Royal Cypher (EP) and St. Edward’s Crown; both are flanked by decorative scrollwork that comes together in the shape of a tiara, with a prominent maple leaf to pay tribute to the Canadian Crown. The vibrant blue hue of the garter sash provides a colourful backdrop for the engraved double dates “1947” and “2017” that mark this Royal Platinum Anniversary. Fittingly, the geometric motif encircling the design is inspired by Her Majesty’s platinum-set bracelet, which was gifted to her by His Royal Highness on their wedding day (November 20, 1947). This artistic rendering of the Royal jewel is further enhanced by lustre colour technology, which evokes the scintillating beauty of diamonds and adds a regal sparkle to our numismatic celebration. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51307908857988,"sku":"S163560","price":154.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/2017_20_Fine_Silver_-_A_Platinum_Celebration_Reverse__34956.1510046234.1280.1280.jpg?v=1759538673","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/sale-2017-20-a-platinum-celebration-fine-silver-coin-no-sleeve","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
