| Obverse description | The Coat of Arms of the Republic of Molossia occupies the central field, depicting a rearing horse within a quartered shield surmounted by a crown flanked by two spread eagles. Radiating sunbursts extend outward from behind the shield across the field, and crossed rifles or lances are arranged symmetrically around the central device. A ribbon below the shield bears the legend MOLOSSIA. The denomination 100 VALORA appears in the lower field, with the arc legend REPUBLIC OF MOLOSSIA running along the lower rim. The motto NOTHING VENTURED - NOTHING GAINED curves along the upper rim, and the word SAMHAINN appears in the right field. |

| Additional information |
Molossia, a micronation occupying roughly 1.3 acres of Nevada desert, has issued coins since 1999 with the Valora pegged to a decidedly unconventional standard: the Pillsbury cookie dough tube. This piece is a test plating — a production sample used to verify adhesion and finish quality before committing to a full strike run, not a coin struck for circulation or collector release.
