| Additional information |
Part of a broader Australian-minted wildlife series produced by the Perth Mint on behalf of Tuvalu, a Pacific microstate with no meaningful domestic silver mining or coining infrastructure. These issues are legal tender in name only — Tuvalu's actual circulating currency is the Australian dollar, and no one has ever spent one of these in a shop in Funafuti.
