| Aanvullende informatie |
Fiji has issued commemorative silver dollars under royal warrant since the 1970s, but by 2012 the series had expanded aggressively into ancient-world subjects with no geographic or historical connection to the issuing territory. This coin exists entirely as a numismatic product — Fiji's name and Elizabeth II's authority used instrumentally to satisfy collector demand for ancient Egyptian imagery on legal-tender silver.
Nefertiti's bust, excavated at Amarna in 1912 by Ludwig Borchardt's German expedition, became one of the most reproduced artifacts of the 20th century. Berlin's Neues Museum has held it since 1920, over repeated Egyptian repatriation requests.
