Additional information

Hutt River Province — the self-declared micronation established by Leonard Casley in Western Australia in 1970 following a dispute with the state government over wheat production quotas — issued a series of military aviation coins in the early 1990s with no particular connection to its own history or territory. The A-6E Intruder, a U.S. Navy carrier-based jet that flew combat missions from Vietnam through the Gulf War, had nothing to do with Casley's few thousand acres of farmland.

Pieces like this exist purely as novelty bullion products targeting collectors of micronation issues and aviation themes simultaneously. The X# prefix in Krause confirms its non-circulating fantasy status.
