| Additional information |
Guernsey issued this piece to mark Elizabeth II's fifty years on the throne — the same milestone commemorated by dozens of Commonwealth territories simultaneously in 2002, most using near-identical crown-sized flans. The gold-plated copper-nickel composition places it firmly in the souvenir category rather than the bullion or proof series, which were struck separately in actual precious metals for collectors willing to pay accordingly.
