THE DIAMOND DIADEM
The regal Diamond Diadem is also known as the George IV State Diadem because it was originally created for the coronation of King George IV in 1821. It has since been exclusively worn by queens regnant and consort beginning with Queen Adelaide and continuing with Queen Victoria, who designated it an Heirloom of the Crown in 1901. Its silver frame is lined with gold and set with 1,333 brilliant-cut diamonds, including a four-carat yellow brilliant at the centre of the front cross; its narrow band is edged with pearls and surmounted by four crosses pattée and four sprays featuring a rose for England, shamrocks for Ireland and a thistle for Scotland.
DESIGN
Designed by Canadian artist Jori van der Linde, this coin’s reverse is adorned with seven genuine diamonds and features an artistic representation of the famous Diamond Diadem worn by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The platinum-plated motif resembling the diadem’s front cross is set with a yellow gold diamond and flanked by floral sprays that combine the emblems of England, Ireland and Scotland. The reverse includes the inscription “CANADA” at the top and “250 DOLLARS” at the bottom. The obverse features the date “2022” and a field pattern behind the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
The Artist: Jori van der Linde
“I chose to feature the cross motif because it is the central design of The Queen’s diadem, and I broke down the secondary floral motif to frame and highlight the elegance of the cross. The challenge I faced was creating a symmetrical balance in the floral design elements; however, I found it exciting to be able to work with and have my design enhanced by gemstones.” – Jori van der Linde, Artist
DID YOU KNOW?
Although Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary wore the Diamond Diadem for family events, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has mostly worn the Diamond Diadem on State occasions. Since her accession to the throne in 1952, Her Majesty has worn the diadem while travelling to and from the annual State Opening of (United Kingdom) Parliament; it was also worn during the coronation procession in 1953.
Her Majesty can be seen wearing the Diamond Diadem in many official portraits, as well as banknotes, postage stamps and coins. The diadem can be seen on the obverse of most Canadian coins issued between 1990 and 2002, when they typically featured the effigy by Dora de Pédery-Hunt.
PACKAGING
Each coin is individually encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded premium wooden case with a black beauty box. It is accompanied by a serialized certificate from the Royal Canadian Mint and two additional certificates confirming the authenticity of the diamonds featured on your coin.
