| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar's sovereign-denomination coins occupy a peculiar corner of numismatics — the territory issues its own coinage under Royal Mint license but outside the UK's currency framework, a arrangement that has produced a steady stream of commemorative pieces aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation. The "Strength and Stay" title references the phrase used by Prince Philip to describe the Queen at their 1997 Golden Wedding anniversary, a line drawn from a 1965 hymn by William How.
Philip died in April 2021, making this issue one of several struck in the months immediately surrounding his death.
