Each 2026 1 Kilo Proof Gibraltar Silver The Queen Elizabeth II 100 Masterpiece Coin comes in a presentation box and includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. While Maklouf’s third-generation portrait of the Queen was widely used on circulating coinage, this special 100 Masterpiece Series highlights seven of his designs that were never released into circulation. The edge of each coin is inscribed with the date April 21, 2026, marking the Queen’s 100th birthday.

Queen Elizabeth II became heir to the throne following the abdication of her uncle, King Edward VIII, in 1936. This event placed her father, King George VI, on the throne and made Elizabeth heir presumptive at just ten years old. She approached her future role with dedication, even serving in the Auxiliary Territorial Service during World War II. As her father’s health declined, she gradually took on more royal duties, preparing for the responsibilities she would later carry throughout her reign.

The obverse of the 2026 Proof Gibraltar Silver The Queen Elizabeth II 100 Masterpiece Coin features a portrait of King Charles III. This left-profile image, designed by Raphael Maklouf, shows the King without a crown in a clean and simple style.

On the reverse of the 2026 1 Kilo Proof Silver The Queen Elizabeth II 100 Masterpiece Coin, you will find the royal emblem of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by seven unused portrait designs from Maklouf. Trained in London and originally from Jerusalem, Maklouf is known for his detailed and balanced approach to portraiture, focusing on accuracy and lasting character.
