| Additional information |
South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands has no permanent civilian population and no functioning local economy — coins issued in its name are purely numismatic products sold to collectors, a practice the territory has pursued aggressively since the 1990s. The Horse Guards subject has no geographic or historical connection to the territory whatsoever.
