| Additional information |
Vanuatu has no florin denomination and never has — the country has issued vatu since independence in 1980. "Fantasy" pieces like this one are produced by private minting houses, typically in Eastern Europe, with no authorization from any issuing authority. They circulate only among novelty collectors and are occasionally mislabeled as legitimate issues in bulk lot sales.
