| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of the Republic of Seychelles is depicted centrally in the field, featuring a quartered shield bearing a palm tree and a giant tortoise, supported on either side by two large marlins, with a white-tailed tropicbird perched atop the crest. A scroll beneath the shield bears the national motto FINIS CORONAT OPUS in Latin. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF SEYCHELLES arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1996 appears at the base, flanked by two raised dots. |

Seychelles issued this coin for the Atlanta Games — the centennial Olympic celebration — during a period when the island nation had only recently transitioned away from its single-party socialist state, which had dominated since the 1977 coup. Small-nation Olympic commemoratives of this era were produced in enormous variety, many commissioned through the same handful of European minting agents rather than domestic facilities, and often struck at quantities calibrated more for collector sales than any pretense of circulation.
The .500 fine silver specification — half silver by content — was a common cost-reduction choice for this tier of commemorative issue.
