| Additional information |
The Turks and Caicos Islands had no meaningful domestic economy to serve with coinage in 1982 — these crown-sized silver pieces were produced explicitly for the collector market, timed to the FIFA World Cup held that year in Spain. The islands' use of the U.S. dollar for everyday transactions made commemorative issues their primary numismatic output throughout the 1980s.
