| Additional information |
Part of Perth Mint's long-running licensed bullion and collector series drawing on Norse mythology, this issue capitalizes on the post-2011 pop-culture resurgence of Thor driven largely by the Marvel Cinematic Universe — a frankly unusual influence on a sovereign mint's production calendar. Tuvalu's arrangement with Perth Mint has made the island nation a prolific issuer of themed 1-oz silver rounds carrying legal tender status, though none circulate.
