| 裏面の説明 | A highly detailed, ultra-high relief depiction of a Megalodon shark rendered in dramatic three-quarter frontal view, its massive jaws agape and rows of serrated teeth prominently displayed, set against a turbulent oceanic background. The design fills the entire silver centre field with exceptional sculptural depth and antique finish patination. The legend 'MEGALODON' is inscribed in bold raised lettering along the upper right periphery, following the curve of the coin. The date '2025' appears vertically along the lower left field. |

The megalodon-themed coinage from Pacific island nations has become a predictable commercial category, but Vanuatu's issues carry a specific institutional footnote worth noting: the Reserve Bank of Vanuatu has operated since 1980, the year of independence from joint British-French condominium rule — one of the more unusual colonial arrangements in modern history, where two competing administrations simultaneously governed the same territory under separate legal and currency systems. The vatu itself replaced both the Australian dollar and the French Pacific franc upon independence.
At 155 grams and 60 mm, this is bullion-adjacent territory — a numismatic product rather than a circulating issue, almost certainly produced by a contracted private mint rather than struck domestically.
