| Additional information |
Issued under license from Lucasfilm, this was part of New Zealand Mint's early push into the licensed pop-culture bullion market — a segment that would eventually become a significant revenue stream for several smaller sovereign and authorized mints. The legal tender status is nominal, issued through Niue, which has long licensed its monetary authority for exactly this kind of collectible coinage.
KM#669 is a Niue-attributed issue despite the "New Zealand Mint" branding, a distinction that trips up newer collectors.
