| Additional information |
The Marshall Islands began issuing commemorative coinage in 1986 under authority granted by the Compact of Free Association with the United States, which established the republic's sovereignty while tying its currency to the US dollar. The prolific commemorative program that followed was largely contract-produced and aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation.
The "Shooting Star" designation places this within a series celebrating celestial and astronomical subjects — a recurring theme across Marshall Islands issues of the mid-1990s. KM#209 is a one-year type with no known die varieties of collector significance.
