| Additional information |
Bermuda's proof coinage program of the 1990s was produced under contract by the Royal Mint, which had maintained a working relationship with the territory for decades. The 10-cent denomination in silver proof format was issued primarily for collector sets rather than any circulating purpose — Bermuda's everyday coinage ran in cupronickel, and the silver variants existed solely within the gift and numismatic trade that the island's tourism economy quietly depended upon.
