| Additional information |
The "Two Seals" designation refers to a transitional quirk in the Royal Mint's production contract for BVI coinage: a small run of 1993 issues carried both the old and updated territorial seal during a revision period, distinguishing them from the standard single-seal strikes of the same year. Collector interest in this piece is almost entirely attributable to that anomaly rather than the issue itself.
