2016 Queen Elizabeth II 90th Birthday 2oz Gold High Relief Coin
On 21 April 2016, Queen Elizabeth II will celebrate her 90th birthday. Each Commonwealth country traditionally celebrates The Queen’s birthday on a designated day in May or June.
In the United Kingdom, it falls on the first, second, or third Saturday in June, which was chosen for the fine weather in the northern hemisphere, making it a preferable time for a public holiday.

Struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure gold, the coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 300 of the H.M. Queen Elizabeth II 90th Birthday 2oz Gold Proof High Relief Coin.
The reverse design features St Edward’s Crown surrounded by wattle branches. The inscriptions H.M. QUEEN ELIZABETH II and 90TH BIRTHDAY, the date ‘21-4-2016’, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark are also included in the design. The obverse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the 2016 year-date, and the monetary denomination.
The coin’s high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
The 2oz gold coin is presented in a wooden Perth Mint display case and beautifully illustrated shipper, and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
