| Additional information |
The British Indian Ocean Territory has no permanent civilian population and no local economy — its coins are struck exclusively for the collector market, with no meaningful circulation ever intended. BIOT issues are licensed through the treasury of the territory's administering authority and produced by private mints targeting the novelty end of numismatics.
KM#45.1 is the uncolored variant designation's counterpart; the colored finish was applied post-strike.
