NOTESMost of those listed above have so far produced only collector coins or pseudo-coins, but no "banknotes."
The Chatham Islands (a territory of New Zealand) have however produced "banknotes" that are not legal tender.
Both Niue and the Pitcairn Islands have issued their own circulation sets in recent years. Although they
are legal tender, they are meant for collectors only and do not circulate.
Private companies have issued fantasies in the name of both Easter Island and
the Galapagos Islands. However, these fantasies are not official and have no legal status.
They are commercial products aimed at collectors of such items.
