| Additional information |
Mother Teresa died in September 1997, and this issue nominally commemorates that year — though it was struck in 2020, more than two decades later, as part of the ongoing wave of small-format gold miniatures produced largely for the collector market rather than any ceremonial purpose. Her beatification came in 2003 and canonization in 2016, both of which generated far more numismatic interest than her death year alone.
