Queen's Platinum Jubilee Commemorative Mark to be Withdrawn as a Mark of Respect
Published: 8th September 2022
Yesterday Buckingham Palace announced the very sad news of the passing of our long-reigning monarch, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. As a mark of respect, the Platinum Jubilee commemorative mark will now be withdrawn from use by the four Assay Offices of the United Kingdom.
Any items that have already been submitted or pre-scheduled for marking with the Platinum Jubilee mark will be processed as promised, but with immediate effect, no further new submissions for the commemorative mark will be accepted.
The commemorative mark was originally planned to be applied until the end of Her Majesty's platinum Jubilee year in December 2022.
