| Additional information |
Fiji's licensing arrangement with Marvel for this issue is part of a broader strategy by the island nation's government to generate revenue through legal-tender novelty coinage — a practice that has made Fiji one of the more prolific issuers of themed collectibles despite having no meaningful domestic demand for such pieces. The coin functions as merchandise with a face value attached.
The light-up mechanism is battery-powered, embedded in the coin's body, which accounts for the substantial weight relative to the diameter.
