Quote: "chomp-master"Like all overseas territories. And I don't count Crown Dependencies.Gibraltar doesn't even follow our Obverses anymore either. The portrait is completely different and instead of Queen Elizabeth II, she's now styled Queen of Gibraltar.
But their coinage policy remains strange for me as using different reverses.
Quote: "jokinen"Gibraltar is a great place to visit alongside the many things to see in Andalusia. I've been there 15 years ago by car crossing the border from La Linea. After the border crossing cars will cross the airport's runway as there's not enough space on this small strip of land next to the Rock. Getting into Gibraltar was easy, leaving Gibraltar wasn't. It's such a tax haven that the authorities take their time to look for anything in people's cars.thanks, I should have mentioned the airport road but was in a rush last night and Also couldn't find the info on how much/ many the quarts were equivalent to.
The Gibraltar Quarts were derived from the Spanish Real. A Spanish Dollar was roughly equal to 4s4d or 52 pence, which made a Real de Plata 1/8th of that equal 6 pence and 2 farthings. A real was 24 quarts, so 1 quart was 1 1/12 farthing.
In 1872 Spanish currency (Peseta) was made official in Gibraltar with a Pound worth around 25 Pesetas. In 1898, the Pound was introduced as the value of the Peseta dropped as a result of the Spanish-American War.
Gibraltar is currently a bit overdoing its issuance of new circulation types (yet another new design since 2014) and especially non-circulating commemoratives.
