Additional information

The Maldives issued this coin as part of a wave of wildlife-themed commemoratives produced throughout the early 1990s largely for the collector export market rather than domestic circulation. The Maldivian rufiyaa had by this point been pegged to the US dollar, and silver commemoratives of this weight had no practical monetary function on the islands.

KM#86 is one of several pieces in the series tied to CITES-listed species, with mintages kept deliberately low to sustain secondary market demand.
