FWIW, the ship is a galleon, so it may well be the "Golden Hind", which has no connection with any royal wedding either. Queen Elizabeth obviously liked him, but she didn't marry him.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

The ship certainly is intended to be Sir Francis Drake's "Golden Hind". See: Galleons.

The commemorate set for the 125th anniversary of Canadian federation should fit the bill for this theme. Perhaps the Queens golden jubilee as well

The US Mint started issuing the Kennedy half dollar as a circulation coin in 1964. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the piece (still issued regularly but does not really occur in circulation), it made three special products in 2014. The gold coin uses the regular design but has both dates (1964 2014); the other pieces are simply dated 2014 but have the higher relief of the original JFK half. Links and/or images:

The word INDEPENDENCE has been removed.
