| Additional information |
Tristan da Cunha, a British Overseas Territory and the most remote permanently inhabited island on earth, issues commemorative coinage through the British Crown dependencies framework despite having no functioning local economy that uses coins. Prince George was born 22 July 2013; this piece was almost certainly struck before the birth, with the date applied speculatively — a common practice among commemorative producers working to beat competitors to market.
Rhodium-platinum accent finishing on copper-nickel blanks is a collector-market technique with no minting tradition behind it.
