Additional information

Issued to commemorate the June 1999 wedding of Prince Edward and Sophie Rhys-Jones, this piece belongs to a category of Ugandan commemoratives that existed almost entirely for the collector export market — Bank of Uganda had no realistic expectation these would circulate domestically. The crown-sized silver format was chosen to align with collector expectations rather than any indigenous monetary tradition.
