The Tuvaluan Dollar is the currency of Tuvalu - a small nation in the Pacific Ocean. Tuvalu has never had banknotes of its own, and has been issuing coins since 1976; these circulate together with coins of the Australian Dollar, which is also legal tender in the country, and to which the Tuvaluan Dollar is pegged.

The Australian Perth Mint issues a large variety of non-circulating legal tender (NCLT) coins under the authority of Tuvalu. Some of these are in the one dollar denomination, and have the same specifications that the mint uses for its large non-circulating Australian dollar range; these are larger than the normal circulating dollar coins.

This product combines two of the most collected items in the world - coins and stamps. The coin is designed and struck by The Perth Mint in collaboration with Australia Post which creates a custom-made envelope and themed stamps. Postmarked for the first day of issue and featuring Australia Post’s Seal of Authenticity, these unique and affordable items make ideal gifts for collectors.
