On February 6, 1952, King George VI of England died of illness, and Princess Elizabeth, who was visiting Africa, succeeded to the throne at the age of 25. It can be said that the 96-year-old Queen has completely dedicated her life to the British royal family. In the hearts of many people, she not only witnessed history, but her experience is a living history book.

1977 is the 25th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne, also known as the Silver Jubilee. The Queen was greeted by an enthusiastic crowd as she toured the country. On June 7 that year, the Queen and her husband took the royal golden carriage from Buckingham Palace to St Paul's Cathedral for the 25th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne. She delivered a speech, reaffirming her promise when she was enthroned, that she would do her duty and fulfill her promise for the rest of her life. She said although it was a promise she made in her green years, she never regretted it and never broke her promise.

Local time on September 8, 2022, Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96 at the Balmoral Castle, Scotland, ending her brilliant life.

The reverse design is taken from five portraits that have appeared on British coins since the accession of Queen Elizabeth II on February 6, 1952. These portraits have been described as the definitive British coin portraits. This is a milestone. Above the portrait is the St. Edward's Crown worn by Queen Elizabeth II at her coronation, the most important symbol of royal power.
