| Additional information |
The Institut d'Émission d'Outre-Mer issues currency for France's Pacific collectivities — New Caledonia, French Polynesia, and Wallis and Futuna — operating as the monetary authority in place of the Banque de France. The Bass Islands, known in French as Îles Bass or Îles Marotiri, are among the most remote and inhospitable points in French Polynesia: uninhabited rock stacks at the southeastern extreme of the Austral archipelago, rarely visited and never permanently settled.
The silver-plated copper-nickel format places this squarely in the modern collector-issue category, struck for the numismatic market rather than circulation.
