The Fiji government is issuing two million $7 banknotes to commemorate their gold medal victory in rugby sevens at last year’s Olympics.
The banknotes are legal tender and are the only known $7 notes in circulation in any country.
A $7 Fijian banknote is worth approximately $3.35 AUD and was released on Friday.
Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama said Fiji’s gold medal showed the country could compete with the best in the world despite its small size.
