| Additional information |
Tokelau's coinage program is administered through New Zealand, which holds responsibility for the territory's defense and foreign affairs. These issues circulate nominally but function primarily as collector pieces — the atoll's population of roughly 1,500 has no local currency infrastructure, and New Zealand dollars handle day-to-day transactions. KM#127 is part of a broader series documenting traditional Pacific material culture, issued under the authority of the New Zealand mint on Tokelau's behalf.
