| Aanvullende informatie |
Tristan da Cunha, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic with a permanent population under 300, issues commemorative coinage through the Pobjoy Mint under a licensing arrangement — coins that are legal tender on the island but effectively never circulate there. The WWI centenary series of which this piece is part was produced for the collector market, timed to the hundredth anniversary of the August 1914 declarations of war.
Silver-plated steel rather than sterling or fine silver keeps production costs low on issues like this, a distinction worth noting for anyone considering long-term storage.
