Also designed by Ian Rank-Broadley the obverse features a portrait of the young Queen Elizabeth just as she appeared in her first portrait, with the latin words DIRIGE DEUS GRESSUS MEOS (May God Guide My Steps) to the right of the portrait and the date 2012 to the left.

Value
We think the silver proof piedforts, gold plated silver proof and platinum piedfort too expensive to make them a worthwhile purchase. If, however, you would like to purchase quantities of these coins, i.e. 10 or more please contact us as we may still be able to source them at considerable discount compared to the Royal Mint.
Wanted
We play an active part in the secondary market for many platinum, gold and silver products, including commemorative crowns so we would be more than happy to purchase a 2012 (or any other date) crown from you.
This obviously means that we may at some point have one for sale, so if you would like to telephone us and place an order we would hope to fulfil it with time.
Cheaper Alternative
If you are interested in purchasing a commemorative item to celebrate The Queen's Diamond Jubilee but do no necessarily want a £5 crown then our commemorative medallions represent better value. Priced at just £4.95 each (for singles) we have produced two different reverse designs, one featuring a young portrait of The Queen and the other a crown. Quantity discounts and special prices available for charities, schools and organised groups.
