The tin on the left, with a portrait of a stately young Queen was sold as a souvenir of the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II which took place on the 2nd day of June, 1953. Originally it held flavoured Toffees. The small Royal Albert bone china dish was another commemorative piece for the Coronation. With a nod to the Queen Mother, the smaller teapot shaped caddie marks the 100th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.
And this beautiful teacup and saucer is part of The Royal Collection and was crafted to commemorate the 80th birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Royal Collection Trust Shop has created a teacup and saucer in addition to other official commemorative chinaware in celebration of this milestone 90th birthday.
This collection of stamps shows the progression of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II over the years.On the occasion of her 21st birthday she promised "my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service". A promise she continues to steadfastly keep.
Long Live the Queen!
Long May she Reign!
and, Happy 90th Birthday!

Nice collection! We need to be in England celebrating over afternoon tea. Oh well, I'll sip my morning cuppa and remember our fun times together in London.
