| Aanvullende informatie |
The Turks and Caicos Islands adopted the crown as a collectors-only denomination in the 1970s, producing no circulating coinage of its own and relying on the US dollar for everyday transactions. These silver issues were minted exclusively for the numismatic market, a revenue strategy pursued aggressively by smaller British Overseas Territories throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
KM#205 is part of a marine life series tied loosely to the Islands' reputation as a world-class dive destination — the Caicos Bank and surrounding walls were already drawing technical divers by the mid-1990s.
