Next year's coronation will be the first for almost 70 years - the last being for Elizabeth II in June 1953 - and the first held on a Saturday since Edward VII in 1902.
(Coronation on 6 May for King Charles and Camilla, Queen Consort by Sean Coughlan)

Does "the last being for Elizabeth II in June 1953" mean:

The last coronation was for Elizabeth II in June 1953.

Do people also omit "being" and write "the last for Elizabeth II in June 1953"?
