| Reverse description | The reverse presents a full-colour portrait of Lieutenant Nyota Uhura in her iconic red Starfleet Operations uniform, depicted from the waist up with her right hand raised to her ear-piece communicator in her celebrated pose. A starfield background evokes deep space, rendered in dark tones contrasting with the gold-coloured border. The Starfleet Operations division insignia (delta shield) appears in the left field. The curved legend 'HAILING FREQUENCIES OPEN' arcs prominently across the upper field, with 'STAR TREK' inscribed along the outermost upper border. The character name 'NYOTA UHURA' is engraved along the lower border, with the copyright notice 'TM & © 2023 CBS. ARR.' in the lower field. |

Samoa has issued commemorative coinage under licensing arrangements for decades, producing pieces aimed squarely at collector markets rather than circulation. This Nyota Uhura issue belongs to a run of Star Trek character coins released through that pipeline — gold-plated iron rather than precious metal, priced accordingly.
