| Additional information |
Moorea has no independent monetary authority — these pieces are issued under a private licensing arrangement exploiting the island's name, not by any French Polynesian governmental body. The Tetraodontidae series targets the thematic collector market, which by 2021 had become one of the most aggressively saturated segments of the modern exonumia trade.
