    Short answer most likely yes. Long answer, razor based on the description is correct for a coronation set made in 1953. If the whole set is correct the case will have a crown on the outside. The only reason I am not saying yes outright is I don't know if this razor was made in aluminum any other year besides the 1953 coronation set.

    the 1953 #58 set is called a coronation set if it has a crown on the case.the 54-5 australian sets are aristocrat jr's and the rest are #58's.as far as i know.

    Thank you, Gary!
    Honestly, if a Gillette Tech was my only available razor for the rest of my life, I'd be fine with that. It works well and I know what to expect.

    OC or Tech, which is the best? You tell me, I like them both equally. ;)
