Fiji has issued a sprawling series of branded legal-tender coins under licensing arrangements that have little to do with Fijian monetary history and everything to do with the collectibles market. This piece is one of dozens in that program, produced for direct sale to collectors rather than circulation. The Coca-Cola branding dates to a licensing agreement that has generated coins across multiple issuing authorities, with Fiji among the most prolific hosts.
KM#861 is cataloged but thinly documented — mintage figures for these issues are typically controlled by the distributor, not the Fijian government.
