A stunning reimagining of one of Australia’s most beloved predecimal coins, notable for the tiny limited edition of 1,926, we are delighted to present the Centenary of the Birth of Queen Elizabeth II 2026 $1 Gold-plated 1oz Silver Proof!

Born in London on April 21, 1926, Queen Elizabeth II succeeded King George VI at the age of just 25. Ruling for a remarkable 70 years and seven months, the Queen ultimately became Britain’s longest-reigning monarch. A beacon of stability in a world of seemingly endless change, Elizabeth II was known for her humility, dignity and strength in adversity, devoting her life to the service of Great Britain and the Commonwealth. She was – and remains – an icon to millions of people worldwide.

The perfect way to pay homage to Queen Elizabeth II, this official Australian legal tender type is struck to immaculate Proof quality from 99.99% silver – and selectively plated in 24-carat gold! Harking back to one of the most important moments in the Queen’s longstanding relationship with Australia, the design is inspired by the 1954 Royal Visit Florin.

Australia’s last predecimal commemorative, issued to celebrate the first of sixteen Royal Tours undertaken by Queen Elizabeth II, the 1954 Royal Visit Florin featured a Lion and a Kangaroo – representing the strong bond between Britain and Australia. Precisely finished in pure gold, the reimagined version of the original design is beautifully accommodated by the broad 40.90mm diameter flan of this sparkling precious metal tribute.

Incredibly, the limited edition of the Centenary of the Birth of Queen Elizabeth II 2026 $1 Gold-plated 1oz Silver Proof has been set at a mere 1,926 coins!
