==Behind the scenes==
Wupiupi first appeared in the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, the first installment of the Star Wars prequel trilogy. The images for wupiupi coins featured in Star Wars: The Visual Encyclopedia are Ottoman coins issued by Sultans Selim III and Mahmud II in real life.
Wupiupi appeared in the second episode of the Obi-Wan Kenobi television series, which was the first show to feature wupiupi, and it was the first time that the currency was designed by the prop making team. The team made at least four prop coins which were made to look very detailed.
