| Additional information |
Tuvalu's platinum fractional issues in this series were produced by the Perth Mint under the long-standing Australian minting arrangement that handles coinage for several Pacific island sovereigns with no mint infrastructure of their own. The .9995 fineness is Perth's standard for platinum bullion, fractionally purer than the .9990 floor common elsewhere.
At 3.11 g, this is a one-tenth troy ounce piece — the entry point of the platinum fractional market, where collector and investor demand overlaps most directly with spot price sensitivity.
