| 正面铭文 | REPUBLIC OF THE GAMBIA 1996 |
| 背面描述 | A forward-facing portrait bust of a young Queen Victoria, draped and with her hair dressed in a characteristic early-Victorian coiffure with ringlets and a decorative comb, occupies the central field. To the left of the effigy, an early steam locomotive rendered in fine detail is depicted in profile, while a second period railway carriage is visible to the right. Ornamental scrollwork frames the inner design on both sides. The legend VICTORIAN AGE arcs along the upper periphery, with the subtitle THE FIRST STEAM TRAINS inscribed on a secondary arc below it, and the denomination 20 DALASIS appears in the lower exergue. |

The Gambia has no railways and never has — making this a purely commemorative issue with no domestic rail history behind it. The 1996 series was part of a broader wave of topical silver crowns produced for the collector market by small nations leveraging their mint licensing agreements, a practice that peaked in the 1990s as the commemorative coin market briefly boomed before collapsing under its own weight of oversupply.
