Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II acceded to the throne in 1952 at the age of 25 and became Britain’s longest-reigning monarch. The Milestone Years of Queen Elizabeth II set takes a closer look at each of the key milestones of Her Majesty’s life and 70-year reign. Each of the eight milestones are commemorated with a coin issued by The Royal Mint: the year of her birth, wedding, accession to the throne, coronation, Silver Jubilee, Golden Jubilee, Diamond Jubilee and Platinum Jubilee.
