The Blue Sapphire Jubilee: Queen will not celebrate

The Blue Sapphire Jubilee: Queen will not celebrate 65th anniversary but instead sit in “quiet contemplation” remembering father’s death

The Daily Telegraph report that "The Queen will notch up yet another remarkable milestone in her record-breaking reign next week - but for her, it will be a day of contemplation rather than celebration".

As such, no official medal will be issued to mark the occasion as happened with the Diamond Jubilee in 2012. Veterans, serving members of the Armed Forces are reminded that any 'Commemorative' medals issued to mark the occasion are NOT official issues. If you are unsure about the validity and/or correct order of wear of any medals, please call our experts on 01952 327571.
