Additional information

Issued to mark Prince William's title rather than any specific event, this BVI dollar belongs to a sprawling category of Commonwealth territory commemoratives produced almost entirely for the collector market — circulation was never the point. The British Virgin Islands have no independent monetary authority; these pieces are licensed issues produced through arrangements with private minting companies, and the "1 Dollar" denomination bears no relationship to actual purchasing power on the islands, where the US dollar has been the functional currency since 1959.
