5 Dollars Monopoly Game Board: Passing Go

Samoa has become one of the Pacific's more prolific novelty mint vehicles, licensing pop culture properties for legal-tender issues that circulate nowhere and are purchased entirely by thematic collectors. This piece is part of a series commemorating the Monopoly board game, which itself dates to Charles Darrow's commercialization of Elizabeth Magie's earlier "Landlord's Game" patent from 1903 — a design Darrow sold to Parker Brothers in 1935 without crediting its origins.

KM#775 places this among a numbered sequence issued under Samoan authority through a licensing arrangement with Hasbro.
