| Additional information |
Saint Helena issued this piece to mark Elizabeth II's 75th birthday, one of several commemorative 50 pence pieces the island produced during this period to supplement its limited circulating coinage. The island's extreme remoteness — population under 5,000, no airport until 2016 — meant most such issues were absorbed by collectors rather than commerce.
