| Additional information |
The Isle of Wight has no authority to issue legal tender coinage — this is a local trade token, one of dozens produced across British seaside towns and tourist attractions during the 1990s as novelty souvenirs rather than circulating currency. Dinosaur Land is a small fossil and replica attraction in Sandown, trading on the island's genuine paleontological significance: the Isle of Wight has produced more dinosaur species than anywhere else in the UK, including significant finds of Neovenator salerii first described in 1996.
