Additional information

Borobudur sits in central Java, not Bhutan, which makes this issue one of several Bhutanese silver pieces from the early 2000s minted explicitly for the collector export market rather than domestic circulation. Bhutan's Royal Monetary Authority leaned heavily on this model during that period, licensing foreign landmark subjects to generate foreign exchange revenue — a pragmatic arrangement common among smaller sovereign minters with limited numismatic infrastructure.
