| Additional information |
Commemorative dollars of this type were produced in large quantities by the Pobjoy Mint and similar private operators during the decade following Diana's 1997 death, targeting the collector gift market rather than any numismatic audience. Cook Islands licensing arrangements made the territory a convenient issuing authority for pieces that would never approach its shores.
