| Aanvullende informatie |
Ascension Island, a British Overseas Territory with a population rarely exceeding a thousand, has no indigenous coinage tradition and issues collector pieces almost exclusively through the Pobjoy Mint under license. This 2017 memorial issue marks the twentieth anniversary of Diana's death in Paris, part of a wave of commemoratives from British territories that year which flooded the collector market simultaneously.
The laminated alloy construction — rather than standard cupro-nickel — was a Pobjoy production choice that keeps costs down while allowing surface color effects not possible with homogeneous alloys.
