-* `coerce_to_string` Set to `True` if string values should be returned for the representation, or `False` if `BigInteger` objects should be returned. Defaults to the same value as the `COERCE_BIGINT_TO_STRING` settings key, which will be `True` unless overridden. If `BigInteger` objects are returned by the serializer, then the final output format will be determined by the renderer.
