Platinum Jubilee
The reign of Her Majesty The Queen has now seen more jubilees than that of any other British monarch, presiding in her 70 years as monarch over periods of great national change and prosperity. In 2022, the year of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, the Royal Mint Museum will be hosting a national programme of activities to commemorate the Queen’s long reign and the many changes to the country throughout it. We will be celebrating the achievements of the nation, exploring the Royal Mint’s role in past Jubilees, and bringing together people up and down the country to celebrate this momentous occasion.
