| Additional information |
Hutt River Province — the micronation unilaterally seceded from Western Australia in 1970 by Leonard Casley, who styled himself Prince Leonard I — issued a series of silver coins throughout the 1980s and 1990s primarily as collector revenue, having no meaningful circulating currency infrastructure. This piece commemorating the "Silent Submarine Service" has no connection to any actual naval force; Hutt River maintained no military, and the subject appears chosen purely for collector appeal in an era when submarine-themed issues sold reliably on the numismatic novelty market.
X# designation places it firmly outside mainstream world coin cataloging — KM numbers were never assigned.
