| Additional information |
The Pobjoy Mint, a private British minting house based in Surrey, struck numerous commemorative issues for smaller territories and island nations throughout the 1990s and 2000s under licensing arrangements. This piece belongs to that commercial commemorative category — produced for collector sale rather than circulation, with the .9999 fineness chosen specifically to meet investment-grade bullion standards favored by that market.
