The 1953 Coronation Medal was made to celebrate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II on the 2nd June 1953. For Coronation and Jubilee medals, the practice up until 1977 was that United Kingdom authorities decided on a total number to be produced, then allocated a proportion to each of the Commonwealth countries and Crown dependencies and possessions. More than 153,000 medals were issued and the award of these medals was then at the discretion of the local government authority, who were free to decide who got a medal and why.
