20 for 20 Series: 2012 The Queen's Diamond Jubilee (1/4 Oz Pure Silver, $20 Face Value)

This is the 4th coin in the Royal Canadian Mint's 20 for 20 series. The coins is 1/4 ounce of pure silver (99.99%) and has a $20 face value (and could originally be purchased for $20). The mintage for this coin is 250,000.

This coin celebrates Queen Elizabeth II and her Diamond Jubilee (60 years as the monarch). Although I am not terribly interested in the Queen, I do love this series so I bought the coin anyway. I am sure people who like the Royal family will love the coin but for me, personally, this is my least favourite coin in the series. I don't have anything against the Queen, she just doesn't capture my interest.
