| Additional information |
Gibraltar has issued commemorative crowns continuously since the 1970s, contracting primarily through Pobjoy Mint and later the British Royal Mint's commercial arm, producing themed series on subjects with no constitutional or historical connection to the territory. Tutankhamun's tomb was discovered by Howard Carter in November 1922, meaning 2023 marks the centenary-plus-one — a slightly awkward anniversary that suggests this piece was either delayed from a 2022 centennial program or simply indifferent to the milestone it implies.
