Additional information

Issued in 2015 to mark the point at which Elizabeth II surpassed Queen Victoria as Britain's longest-reigning monarch — a threshold crossed on September 9th of that year — this piece belongs to a wave of commemoratives produced across multiple Crown Dependencies simultaneously. Guernsey, Jersey, and the Isle of Man each issued coordinated but distinct programs, a commercial arrangement increasingly common among the dependencies by the 2010s.
