| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the Pobjoy Mint exclusive portrait, depicting the Queen wearing a diamond diadem and pearl drop earrings with a pearl necklace, her hair dressed in a characteristic upswept style. The legend BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS arcs along the upper left periphery, while QUEEN ELIZABETH II curves along the right, with the date 2019 positioned at lower right. The Pobjoy Mint privy mark (PM) appears in the lower field beneath the portrait. |

| Additional information |
The British Virgin Islands has no organic connection to Olympic skateboarding — this is a licensed commemorative issued under the territory's broad authority to produce collector coinage, a revenue stream the BVI has exploited aggressively since the 1970s. Skateboarding made its Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020, delayed to 2021, making this 2019 piece part of the pre-Games promotional wave that flooded the numismatic market ahead of the event.
