| 正面铭文 | ELIZABETH II GIBRALTAR 2001 |
| 背面描述 | Three conjoined busts of the Brontë sisters depicted in relief at the centre of the field, individually identified by their given names: ANNE to the left, EMILY above centre, and CHARLOTTE to the right. The figures are framed below by a laurel wreath incorporating two quill pens, symbolising their literary legacy. A rectangular cartouche bearing the inscription THE BRONTE SISTERS is placed across the lower portion of the busts, with the denomination numeral 1 enclosed in a circular device below, and the word CROWN along the bottom margin. The series title THE VICTORIAN AGE arcs across the upper field. |

Gibraltar has issued commemorative crowns prolifically since the 1990s, targeting the collector market rather than circulation, and this Brontë piece fits squarely in that program. The sisters — Charlotte, Emily, and Anne — spent virtually their entire lives in Haworth, Yorkshire, publishing their landmark novels in 1847 under the male pseudonyms Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell, partly because their publisher, Smith, Elder & Co., had returned Charlotte's earlier manuscript with a note suggesting a novel with more action might sell.
KM#969 is one of several literary-themed issues Gibraltar produced that year.
