| Additional information |
Niger has no historical or cultural connection to Machu Picchu. These miniature gold issues — produced by the European Mint on behalf of African nations with nominal issuing authority — exist purely as collectibles, exploiting the legal minting rights of low-profile sovereigns to generate numismatic revenue. Niger itself sees little of that revenue.
