| Additional information |
GeGeGe no Kitarō is Shigeru Mizuki's long-running manga franchise, launched in 1960 and built around yōkai folklore — supernatural creatures drawn from classical Japanese tradition. Tuvalu has no cultural connection to the material whatsoever; the island nation licenses its sovereign coinage authority extensively to foreign mints producing collectibles for the numismatic market, a revenue stream that has generated hundreds of themed issues with no relation to Tuvaluan history or culture.
The 155.6g weight places this in the five-troy-ounce category, standard for the large-format collector rounds Tuvalu's licensing arrangements typically produce.
