| Additional information |
Pridnestrovie — the narrow strip of territory between Moldova and Ukraine that declared independence in 1990 but remains unrecognized by the United Nations — issues commemorative coinage largely as a revenue and soft-diplomacy exercise, since its currency circulates nowhere outside its own borders. The Tokyo Olympics themselves were delayed a full year by the COVID-19 pandemic, making 2021 the actual date of the games this coin commemorates despite the name.
