| Additional information |
Bhutan's Royal Monetary Authority has issued a consistent run of lunar-themed commemoratives, but these pieces circulate almost exclusively through the international collector market — they have no practical monetary function within Bhutan, where the ngultrum operates at parity with the Indian rupee and day-to-day commerce is dominated by that relationship entirely.
