Additional information

The British Virgin Islands began issuing collector-focused precious metal coinage in the late 1970s primarily as a revenue mechanism — the territory has no meaningful domestic circulation economy for such pieces, and these coins were never intended to pass hand to hand. By the early 1990s the program was well into its mature phase, producing themed issues largely for the international numismatic market rather than any local monetary purpose.

KM#150 belongs to a wildlife series that drew on British heraldic imagery — commercially reliable subject matter for Commonwealth territory issues of this period.
