| Additional information |
Tuvalu has issued licensed pop-culture silver coins under the Perth Mint's production for decades, with the James Bond series among the more commercially aggressive runs. These are bullion-adjacent collectibles sold at significant premiums over spot — the .9999 fineness is a selling point aimed squarely at the collector market rather than anything to do with Tuvalu's actual monetary needs, a nation of roughly 11,000 people whose domestic currency is the Australian dollar in practice.
