| Additional information |
The British Virgin Islands has issued coins under Royal Mint and Pobjoy Mint arrangements since 1973, producing legal tender denominations that circulate almost nowhere — they exist primarily for the collector market, underwritten by a nominal face value few would ever spend. This grouse issue is one of dozens of wildlife-themed pieces produced under that commercial framework.
