| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued thirty-three years after the fact, this coin commemorates the 1937 coronation of George VI — the accession that only occurred because his brother Edward VIII abdicated in December 1936 to marry Wallis Simpson. Bermuda's connection to the Crown made such issues routine by 2000, when the Royal Mint and associated Commonwealth mints were producing bimetallic commemoratives at volume for the collector market.
The gold-plated outer ring is a feature of the 28.28g bimetallic format that became near-ubiquitous in Commonwealth commemorative issues of the late 1990s.
