Opschrift voorzijde ELIZABETH II FIJI 2009
Beschrijving keerzijde A full-length relief effigy of a standing giraffe occupies the central field, depicted in fine sculptural detail with its characteristic reticulated skin pattern rendered in three dimensions. The central recessed disc behind the giraffe is pad-printed in polychrome, replicating the brown and tan coat markings of the animal against a naturalistic background. The upper legend GREAT ANIMALS OF THE WORLD arcs around the circumference, with the name of the animal rendered in five languages — English (GIRAFFE), Chinese (長頸鹿), Polish (żyrafa), French (GIRAFE), and Russian (жирафа) — arranged around the inner border. The denomination ONE DOLLAR appears in the lower exergue in bold relief.

Aanvullende informatie

Fiji's 2009 dollar series was part of a broader Pacific Island trend toward large-format copper-nickel coins featuring regional and international wildlife, issued partly to serve the collector market rather than circulation demand. The giraffe's appearance on Fijian coinage has no geographic or cultural logic — giraffes are native to sub-Saharan Africa — making this almost certainly a mint-contract issue produced for the numismatic trade rather than for everyday use in Suva.
