| Additional information |
The Isle of Pines has no independent monetary authority and issues no legal tender of its own — it operates under the CFP franc system administered from Nouméa. "Local" issues bearing its name are fantasy pieces produced for the novelty collector market, with no governmental sanction from either the French Republic or the local Kanak customary authorities of Kwényï.
