| Additional information |
Tuvalu has no meaningful connection to James Bond beyond the licensing agreements that make these issues possible — the nation's coinage program exists almost entirely as a vehicle for Perth Mint collectibles, with Tuvalu's own GDP too small to sustain a domestic numismatic market. The "Black Edition" designation refers to black rhodium plating applied over the silver surface, a finishing technique Perth has used across several premium collector lines since the mid-2010s.
KM#661 is one of multiple Bond-themed dollars struck for Tuvalu in 2022, each tied to a different film in the franchise's sixty-year run.
