| Comments |
Redonda is a uninhabited volcanic rock in the Caribbean — part of Antigua and Barbuda — with no government, no population, and no central bank. The "Kingdom of Redonda" is a long-running literary fiction, originating in an 1865 claim by a Montserrat merchant and periodically revived by writers and eccentrics who have conferred noble titles on one another since the early twentieth century. It has issued no currency at any point in its history.
This note is fantasy material, produced for the novelty market. Elizabeth II had no constitutional connection to Redonda.
