Indeed it is, it's a "Devolved government within parliamentary constitutional monarchy."

Out of the 14 British Overseas Territories, there are 10 that fit the criteria of being islands and issuing coins after 1976.

Over 1,400 coins issued since 1976.

Also, for purposes of the game, they haven't issued any coins since 1964 I think.

Well I'll ask. Is the coin minted by The Royal Mint (located in England/Wales)?


Yes. It was minted by the British Royal Mint.

The British Overseas Territories are 14 territories under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of the United Kingdom. They are remnants of the British Empire that have not been granted independence or have voted to remain British territories. They are: Anguilla, Bermuda, the British Antarctic Territory, the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT), the British Virgin Islands (BVI), the Cayman Islands, the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia on Cyprus, the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Montserrat, the Pitcairn Islands, Saint Helena and its dependencies (Ascension Island and Tristan da Cunha), South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, and the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Was the coin issued by any of the 14 British Overseas Territories listed above?

Here are the 10 British Territories that are islands in the Western Hemisphere and issued coins after 1976:

Anguilla
only 1 coin, in 2018.
2 Dollars Silver Issued by the Eastern Caribbean Bank
-----------------------------
Bermuda
215 coins found.
----------------------------------

British Virgin Islands
399 coins found.
-------------------------------------
Falkland Islands
221 coins found.
----------------------------------
Monserrat
1 coin (same coin as Anguilla on the obverse) issued by the Eastern Caribbean Bank
----------------------------------
Pitcairn
57 coins found.
----------------------------------
Saint Helena and its dependencies (Ascension Island and Tristan da Cunha)
349 coins found

===========================================

I'm not sure if St Helena is in the Western or Eastern Hemisphere.

sorry to dumb this down, and this isn't a question, it shouldn't matter who minted or distributed the coin, it should only matter the name/country of issue. did I miss something..?

Depends on how the question is worded. If asked where the coin was minted may be different from who issues it.
