| Beschrijving keerzijde | A cruciform arrangement of four heraldic shields occupies the central field, each shield bearing the arms associated with Gibraltar and the British Royal heraldic tradition. At the centre of the cross, a royal crown surmounts the numerals '90', commemorating the 90th birthday of Queen Elizabeth II. The birth year '1926' and the commemorative year '2016' are positioned in the upper and lower fields respectively, flanking the cruciform design. The entire composition is rendered in high-relief proof finish against a deeply mirrored field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar's sovereign issues have long occupied an awkward commercial niche — technically legal tender on the Rock, though the territory uses the pound sterling in practice and these pieces never meaningfully circulate. The 90th birthday issue follows a pattern of commemorative gold sovereigns Gibraltar has produced since the 1970s, capitalizing on the sovereign format's collector recognition without the Royal Mint's production constraints.
Struck to .917 fineness at the standard sovereign weight, placing it squarely in the bullion-weight tradition established by the 1816 Great Recoinage.
