| Additional information |
Fiji's numismatic program in the late 2000s and early 2010s leaned heavily on thematic bullion issues aimed at the collector market rather than any domestic monetary function. This Anubis piece is part of that wave — small-format gold struck for international sale, with Egypt's funerary iconography serving as the draw. The Reserve Bank's name appears on these as issuing authority, but the coins were produced under licensing arrangements with private minting firms operating well outside Suva.
At half a gram, the bullion content is negligible. These trade almost entirely on their collectible designation, not metal value.
