| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse continues the printed-circuit-board motif across the entire field, with fine traces, resistors, and solder-point nodes radiating concentrically from the centre. Dominating the field is a detailed isometric depiction of the upper section of Wim Delvoye's Cloaca machine, rendered in relief with mechanical towers, transparent chambers, conveyor elements, and industrial apparatus faithfully reproduced in miniature. The legend CLOACA arcs along the left inner border and WIM DELVOYE along the upper inner border, while 1 OZ .999 GOLD runs vertically along the right inner border; the date 2019 appears in the lower field, all inscriptions rendered in the same pixelated digital typeface as the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fiji's "Greatest Drains" series is exactly what it sounds like: fine gold coins issued under Fiji's nominal authority commemorating ancient sewage infrastructure. The Cloaca Maxima, Rome's primary drainage channel, dates to the 6th century BC and remains partially functional today — storm runoff still passes through sections of it beneath modern Rome.
These coins are struck by the Perth Mint under licensing arrangements that use Fiji's issuing authority largely as a legal convenience for collector-market novelty issues.
