| Additional information |
Tristan da Cunha, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic with a permanent population of roughly 250 people, issues commemorative crowns largely as revenue-generating exercises for its administration rather than for any domestic monetary purpose. These pieces are struck under contract by outside mints and never meaningfully circulate on the island.
Philip turned 95 in June 2016, making this one of the later issues in a long run of royal commemoratives tied to his milestone birthdays.
