| Additional information |
Sierra Leone has issued commemorative crowns in large quantities since the 1990s through arrangements with foreign minting and marketing firms — this piece belongs to that category, struck not for domestic circulation but for the collector and souvenir trade. The Bank of Sierra Leone served as nominal issuer while the coins were produced and distributed largely outside the country.
