Tristan da Cunha, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic with fewer than 300 inhabitants, has no circulating economy of its own — coins issued in its name are produced for the collector market and never see everyday use on the island. This piece marks Elizabeth II's 75th birthday. The nearest inhabited land is Saint Helena, roughly 2,400 kilometers to the north.
