| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar's commemorative crown program has long operated as a revenue-generating exercise rather than a response to any genuine monetary need, with issues like this one produced almost entirely for the collector and souvenir market. The 2008 flypast subject references the RAF aerial displays that have been a fixture of Gibraltar's National Day and ceremonial occasions, tied directly to the territory's status as a British Overseas Territory with an active military presence at the Rock.
Silver-plated copper-nickel — not to be confused with the .999 silver strikes sometimes issued in parallel — these pieces circulated nowhere and were never intended to.
