| Obverse description | The national arms of Western Samoa occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield bearing the Southern Cross constellation of five stars and a coconut palm above stylised ocean waves, flanked by two olive branches and surmounted by a Latin cross. The date 1970 is divided by the cross above the shield. The Samoan national motto FAAVAE I LE ATUA SAMOA appears on a scroll at the base of the arms. The legend SAMOA I SISIFO arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination $1 is inscribed below in the exergue. |
