Were the Marshall Island "space" coins "spendable in the Marshall Islands or were they just a medal?

They were distributed in the U.S. by a company in the upper midwest possibly in the state of Montana in the late 80's or early 90's. They came in $5 and $50 denomonations.

On the folder that came with the coins, it states that this coin is legal tender of the Republic of the Marshall Islands.
