Additional information

Part of a sprawling commemorative series issued by Sierra Leone in the early 2000s marking various moments from Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee, this piece belongs to a group that depicted scenes from royal walkabouts and official visits rather than constitutional or ceremonial milestones. Sierra Leone had returned to elected government only in 2002 following years of devastating civil war, and the timing of this issue — a foreign-minted commemorative with no practical monetary function — reflects the country's nominal issuing authority being licensed to overseas bullion dealers rather than any domestic minting capability.
