Nauru's "Save the Whales" series sits in a crowded field of Pacific island wildlife commemoratives from the early 2000s — a period when several small sovereign states with minimal domestic coin needs were licensing their monetary authority to bullion and novelty coin producers. The actual commercial relationship behind KM#15 likely ran through a European or Australian mint intermediary rather than any institution on the island itself.
Nauru's total land area is roughly 21 square kilometers, and it has no whales.
