The Marshall Islands began issuing brass commemorative dollars in the early 1990s through a licensing arrangement with the Franklin Mint, producing collectibles with no meaningful circulation role in a country that primarily uses the US dollar. The F-14 Tomcat issue appeared the same year the Navy announced the type's impending retirement — a decision that proved contentious, as the Tomcat's unique swing-wing design and air superiority record from fleet service had made it institutionally popular far beyond its actual operational requirements.
The F-14 was formally retired in 2006. Iran remains the only foreign operator, having received 79 airframes under the Shah before the 1979 revolution.
