| Additional information |
Corterra does not correspond to any recognized sovereign, dependent territory, or monetary union — not in 1989 or at any other date. This appears to be a privately issued fantasy piece or novelty strike rather than a coin produced by a legitimate governmental authority. Such items circulated freely through the 1980s and 1990s collector market under invented national names, typically in .999 silver at one-troy-ounce weights to appeal to bullion buyers.
