I think they minted this one for Jeff :rolleyes:

Wonder how many will end up in the bin (assumes of course that someone buys them)?

I will be in Fiji in September Pedro and will keep an eye out for them. How many do you want if i find some? [Not likely.]
I am fairly certain they had a mention somewhere here before and the point was raised that they may be legal tender but they are not a coin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin).

As many as you can find Jeff and I expect to see the photographic evidence of you rummaging through garbage bins across the breadth of Fiji :laugh2:

That is a challenge to which I don't think I will rise!
How about a genuine Fiji coin with the same design?
(https://www.rbf.gov.fj/getattachment/Left-Menu/Currency-Collections/1980_ic.jpg.aspx) The reserve Bank will happily sell me one for FJD$36.40 (about AUD$24).
"No" you say.
Then how about some genuine Fiji bottle caps? As featured here*...(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--RSCZflBUkw/TffxZ9jJDiI/AAAAAAAAAMA/5wZ2YUO6GLc/s320/IMG_1406.JPG) They aren't hard to find and, in fact, I generate quite a few of those on a visit. Quantity you can have is only limited by my luggage allowance on the return trip. Bet I wouldn't get a suitcase full of those past the scanner at the airport without being asked to open for inspection. :laugh2:
*Sorry, I must already have given the cap from that one to another keen collector.
Thanks for the kind offer Jeff but I might give the Fiji caps a miss ;)
