Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a Samoan Flying Fox (Pteropus samoensis) hanging inverted from a branch, its wings partially folded and its fur rendered with fine engraving. The animal's face is directed toward the viewer, and its eyes are inset with brilliant-cut red crystals, lending a vivid, three-dimensional effect to the design. A second bat is partially visible in the upper right field. The curved legend SAMOAN FLYING FOX runs along the left periphery, with the Latinized scientific name Pteropus samoensis inscribed below it. The date 2010 appears in the right field.

Aanvullende informatie

The Samoan flying fox (Pteropus samoensis) has been formally protected under Samoan law since 1990, though enforcement has remained inconsistent against subsistence hunting pressure. This coin was issued the same year the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species tightened monitoring of Pacific island bat populations — a detail that almost certainly influenced the subject choice for this release.
