| Additional information |
Issued the same year as the April 2011 wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton, this coin commemorates Catherine's title at the time of issue. Fiji has maintained a prolific commemorative program through the Perth Mint and similar facilities, producing pieces aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation. The KM#245 reference places it firmly in that wave of royal-event issues that flooded the market in 2011.
