The Bank of Tasmantis is not a recognized central bank or monetary authority, and "Zealandia" has no currency-issuing jurisdiction. This appears to be a private fantasy or novelty issue — a category that has proliferated since polymer substrate became accessible to small-scale producers in the 2010s. Such items are sometimes marketed as "legal tender" of invented territories, a claim with no standing under any national or international framework.
Collector interest exists, but classification as a banknote in any meaningful numismatic sense is contested.
