| Additional information |
Tristan da Cunha has no meaningful connection to the B-24 Liberator beyond being a British Overseas Territory — these crowns are struck for the collector market, not for circulation on an island of roughly 250 people with no currency infrastructure to speak of. The B-24 itself was built in greater numbers than any other American combat aircraft in history, with over 18,000 produced across multiple manufacturers including Ford's Willow Run plant, which at peak output completed one aircraft every 63 minutes.
