What would Queen's 70th anniv. be called?

The Queen of England’s 50th anniversary of her coronation was called the Golden Jubilee, the 60th was the Diamond Jubilee…she’s halfway to the 70th and could make it, no one’s ever gone that far…what would the 70th anniversary be called? is there something more valuable than diamonds? Platinum jubilee? moon rock jubilee? what???:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Platinum Jubilee

70 is platinum

The google says platinum jubilee in 2022, if she makes it.

Since it’s GQ and all…

No, she’s not “halfway to the 70th” (assuming you meant halfway between 60 and 70). This year is her 62nd.

FWIW, 65 is the less than famous “Blue Sapphire” anniversary.

BTW, easy to know since its the same as weddings.
90 years is only stone. Its like “You’d better like stone at this age !”. :frowning:

in the record business, it goes gold record then platinum record then double platinum no stinkin’ diamonds there

Who decrees these metal/precious stone associatiations with particular anniversaries? Gold and silver are well-established, but I can’t help thinking that a lot of the others are the work of the Hallmark Card Company or similar.

Coprolite?

Blatant threadshitting…

But the perfect answer to the OP’s query. Threadwinning, by my viote.

According to Charles, it’s her “Isn’t she dead yet?” anniversary.

Nah - the the term “Diamond Jubilee” was invented in 1897 for Queen Victoria’s 60th. That’s a full 13 years before Hallmark started out.

What is it, exactly, about platinum that is so valuable? I understand that it’s rare. Does that fact alone make it a precious metal? Why is “platinum” used to denote very valuable things, like a 70th anniversary or a first-class credit card?

I know this probably comes up every time someone starts one of theses types of threads, but she is Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and her realms overseas. The last Queen of England was Queen Anne from 1702 - 1707, when she then became Queen of Great Britain and Ireland.

And it only took the monarchs themselves about 250 years to stop saying it. (The current one pulled off a double whammy. She called herself the Queen of England while in New Zealand.)

At least she didn’t get it wrong in stone.
