​I mean are they coins or exonumia. If they are theoretically legal tender even if they are not meant to be spent then they are coins. right?

They are NOT coins, as Bougainville is part of Papua New Guinea, & Rotuma is part of Fiji.

Bougainville has the Papua New Guinean Kina as its currency.

Rotuma has the Fijian Dollar as its currency.

So when is something a coin? If it is at one time legal tender then it is a coin imho, a 20$ gold coin is still legal tender and a coin even if it is not meant to be spent. ​

​In my opinion a coin is a coin, if it is officially issued by a goverment and is ment to use it, in that country, to buy something. Try this strange 'coins' on a local market. .. and look what happens with your legal tender,
if you are not lucky you will end up in a police office or worse:8D

This entire topic should not be in the Swap and Trade Forum and should instead be in the Numismatic Questions or Free Discussion forum. X-D

Definitely should be listed under 'Exonumia' - as they are NOT coins at all!
