| Obverse description | Right-facing diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II occupies the central field, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. The engraver's initials IRC appear below the truncation of the bust. The Samoan coat of arms is struck in low relief at the base of the field. The legend SAMOA 2020 arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination HALF DOLLAR curves along the lower right, all in raised Latin lettering. |

| Reverse description | The coloured reverse depicts a television news studio scene in a stylised illustrative format. Two news anchors — a male figure at left and a female figure at right — are seated behind a broadcast desk, with a large monitor visible in the background. In the foreground, a camera operator stands behind a tripod-mounted camera, facing the anchors. The inscription BREAKING NEWS appears in prominent red lettering on the studio backdrop. The legend BROADCASTERS AND JOURNALISTS arcs in raised Latin lettering along the upper field. |
