| Additional information |
Saint Helena's issuing authority has produced wildlife-themed silver pounds for the collector market for several years, typically licensing designs tied to biodiversity campaigns. The macaque entry in this series focuses on species found across South and Southeast Asia — primates with documented populations ranging from Gibraltar to Japan, depending on subspecies. The Barbary macaque, notably, is the only wild primate population in Europe, surviving on Gibraltar under military protection since at least the 18th century, when their presence became entangled with British garrison superstition about the Rock's sovereignty.
