| Aanvullende informatie |
Ceylon's silver coinage of this period was struck at the Royal Mint in London, the island having no mint of its own. The .800 fine standard adopted here reflected a deliberate policy shift away from the higher-purity issues of the Victorian period — a cost-reduction measure applied across multiple British colonial dependencies in the early twentieth century.
Production ran through the First World War, when silver supplies were under pressure and colonial coinage budgets were scrutinized closely. KM#105 spans six years without major design revision.
