Description

Early 20th Century Queen Victoria Commemorative Jubilee Plaque in a later oval frame, the copper plaque features a profile bust of Queen Victoria in her later years, often referred to as her "Jubilee Head", the plaque is inscribed "Imperatrix Regina" Latin for "Empress and Queen," reflecting her titles, the dates showing 1837 - 1887 marking her fifty-year reign, while the upper corners are marked 1837 (accession) and 1901 (death), suggesting this specific version may have been issued or updated as a memorial piece shortly after her passing. The bottom border prominently lists major British Empire territories of the time: New Zealand, Canada, Australia, and Cape of Good Hope.
