This commemorative presentation folder celebrates the Diamond Wedding Anniversary of HM Queen Elizabeth II and HRH Prince Philip (1947–2007). Attributed to the International Society of Postmasters, the black textured folder features a gold-embossed portcullis emblem on the cover. The interior comprises two pages, each formatted as a Commemorative Coin First Day Cover and designated as a Limited Edition. The pages contain a collection of Royal Mail commemorative stamps from the 2007 Diamond Wedding issue, including the 1st Class, 54p, and 78p denominations, corresponding to the SG 2774-2779 series. All stamps are cancelled with circular date stamps (CDS) from 16 October 2007. Inset into the pages are two UK five-pound (£5) commemorative crowns. One coin displays the conjoined profile portrait of the Queen and Prince Philip with the legend ELIZABETH II DEI GRA REG FID DEF PHILIP PRINCEPS. The reverse features a rose window design with the inscription TUA AGNEITA DEUS, the value FIVE POUNDS, and the years 1947 and 2007. The set is presented with decorative scrollwork and facsimile signatures. This item was issued to mark the sixtieth wedding anniversary of the royal couple.
