I do not think they are actually "made in Fiji". Fiji does not have an official government mint (their circulating coins are usually made in Britain, Australia, South Africa or Canada), nor are there any private mints actually in Fiji that I am aware of. They were probably made in China.

I would have no problem with Fiji making NCLT for sale to foreign collectors - these tiny Pacific nations are typically near bankruptcy and need all the help they can get. Unfortunately, I highly doubt the government and people of Fiji will get even a fraction of a percent from the profits made from the sale of these "coins". I also highly doubt they are actually legal tender coins, or that anyone in Fiji is aware of their existence.

Sap, Thank You for Your Input,

I Agree, Your Correct on a Few things. I do Not believe the coins are Legal Tender, I also believe your correct about No FIJI mint, I think they reached out to A Foreign mint Too ...

The Fact the " Expert " Stated the U S Mint was Suppose to make This Set in 2022, IMO, This set is a Novelty, a Targeted Shot @ Filling the created Void, The U S Mint promised.

As far as the Coins being brought to collectors, Great Idea, I think All Collectors Should See and Know Exactly what these Are, Educational Wise. These Are Not United States Mint Issued, " Coins "...The American Silver Eagle Series is an Awesome Designed Master Piece .... If people want to Include these in their Collections They Will....

PS, I could See the Collectors that Would Appreciate and Seek, these Newer Foreign Minted Pieces....
