| Additional information |
Issued under the Royal Australian Mint's licensing arrangement with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, this coin belongs to a broader James Bond series timed loosely around the franchise's 60th anniversary cycle. Live and Let Die, released in 1973, was notable as Roger Moore's debut in the role and introduced a markedly lighter tone to the series after the Connery years. Tuvalu functions here primarily as a issuing authority of convenience — the territory has long maintained arrangements permitting commemorative silver issues that carry legal tender status without any expectation of circulation.
