The King George V Silver Jubilee Medal is a commemorative medal, instituted to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the coronation of King George V.

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.
