Re: Canada Celebrates Royal Jewels Posted by Dave on September 1, 2020, 7:37 am, in reply to "Canada Celebrates Royal Jewels" What a wonderful acknowledgement by a grateful people who I believe are proud to have the Queen as their Sovereign. One has to now wonder if the magical aspect of royalty is really dying because the Queen still holds tremendous respect in all of her realms. I fear though that the younger royals starting with the POW will not fear so well if they continue to get involved in politics and left wing ideologies. They need to stay away from those social/ media interviews about their personal lives and views and I believe the government should move quickly to institute a ban on such outings/ maneuverings by royal figures who derive their keep/wealth from public funds. Just stick to the basics of being figures of hard work, unity, strength and cohesion and they should be alright. Regards, Dave.

Re: Canada Celebrates Royal Jewels Posted by Beth on September 2, 2020, 7:23 am, in reply to "Re: Canada Celebrates Royal Jewels" Many thanks Bryce! I don't follow coins but, after having looked at the Royal Canadian Mint site, I realise that it is employing some non-traditional styles in their collectors' series. This is the first time I have seen an item of jewellery feature on coins like this. As the production run is only 4 thousand coins, no doubt they will become a collectors' item. I hadn't previously realised that the three upright elements in the original tiara could be detached and worn as brooches. Have we ever seen QEII wear one of those elements as a brooch?
