| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 95th birthday of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, this coin was part of a broader wave of commemorative silver struck across British Crown Dependencies throughout the 1990s — a period when Guernsey, Jersey, and the Isle of Man competed aggressively for collector revenue through limited commemorative programs. The Queen Mother's centenarian longevity made her the subject of an unusually prolonged commemorative series across multiple issuers and denominations.
