The Coronation Spoon is the oldest surviving piece of the Crown Jewels — a delicate silver-gilt spoon dating from the twelfth century, making it over 800 years old. It is the only item to have survived Cromwell's destruction of the regalia in 1649, hidden away and later recovered at the Restoration. During the coronation, holy oil is poured from the Ampulla into its bowl and anointed upon the sovereign — the most sacred and private moment of the entire ceremony.
This gold-plated commemorative celebrates the Coronation Spoon in fine numismatic detail. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 28.5mm piece is plated in 24 carat gold and weighs 9.5 grams — a gleaming tribute to the oldest and most sacred item in the Crown Jewels.
