| Additional information |
Ascension Island, a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic with a permanent population of under a thousand, has issued commemorative coinage since the 1970s largely as a revenue-generating exercise rather than out of any practical monetary need. This 2021 piece is part of a broader licensed series tied to the centenary of A.A. Milne's first Mole and Ratty stories — though the actual publishing anniversary dates require careful handling, as "Wind in the Willows" first appeared in 1908, making any 2021 centenary claim editorially questionable.
