| Additional information |
Alejandro Selkirk is one of Chile's smaller inhabited islands in the Juan Fernández Archipelago, named after the Scottish castaway whose four-year isolation there from 1704 inspired Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. The island was known as Más Afuera until 1966, when Chile formally renamed it in Selkirk's honor. This issue belongs to a broader Chilean commemorative series celebrating the country's territorial possessions — islands that are administratively part of Valparaíso Region but sit some 800 kilometers off the Pacific coast.
