| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents an allegorical depiction of Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty, rendered in a classical artistic style. The goddess is shown accompanied by a swan, a creature traditionally sacred to her in Hellenic mythology. The design evokes Greco-Roman sculptural traditions, with Aphrodite portrayed in an idealized, graceful manner. The legend APHRODITE arcs across the upper field, with the series inscription GODS OF OLYMPUS completing the design. |

Part of a broader Pacific island bullion and collectible program that proliferated in the 2010s, this piece belongs to a wave of fractional gold issues produced for the collector market rather than any genuine monetary purpose. The .585 fineness — 14-karat — is unusual for sovereign gold coinage, which conventionally runs at .999, .9999, or the older .9167 standard. The lower purity almost certainly reflects a cost-optimization decision to keep the retail price accessible on a half-gram format.
