| Additional information |
Peru's "Natural Wonders" bullion program was launched to highlight the country's biodiversity — one of the highest on earth — and each release in the series targets a specific protected ecosystem or endemic species. The 2017 issue falls within a collector-driven run produced in limited quantities, with distribution handled primarily through the BCR's own numismatic office in Lima rather than through conventional dealer channels, which kept secondary market premiums elevated on release.
