Gibraltar's platinum coinage of the early 1990s occupied an unusual commercial niche — issued not for circulation but squarely at the collector and investor crossover market that briefly flourished before platinum premiums made such small-denomination proofs economically awkward to produce. The chariot racing series drew on classical antiquity at a moment when Gibraltar was issuing prolifically across multiple metals, testing what a small dependent territory's mint program could sustain.
KM#59a is the platinum variant of a type also struck in gold and silver. Mintage figures for the platinum issue were extremely limited, though precise numbers are difficult to pin down in standard references.
