| Additional information |
Tokelau has become a prolific vehicle for New Zealand-administered commemorative bullion issues, its name lending legal tender status to coins with no practical circulation in the atoll's roughly 1,500-person population. This Virgo piece is part of a twelve-coin zodiac series issued under Charles III's name following the September 2022 accession — one of the first major bullion programs to bear his effigy.
KM# 195 places it early in what will be a long Tokelau catalog under the new reign.
