| 裏面の説明 | A b'abal plant (Cyrtosperma chamissonis), a traditional taro variety of cultural significance to Kiribati, is depicted centrally in the field, shown with broad, prominently veined leaves radiating upward from a bulbous root base. The denomination numeral 2 is positioned centrally above the plant, with the legend CENTS arching along the upper rim. The design fills the field generously, leaving a plain smooth border. |

Kiribati gained independence from Britain on July 12, 1979, and this coin was struck as part of the inaugural national coinage issued that same year — the first time the islands had circulated coins under their own authority rather than as part of the Gilbert and Ellice Islands colonial series. The country's name itself presented an immediate bureaucratic puzzle for foreign mints: "Kiribati" is pronounced "Kiribas," following I-Kiribati orthographic convention where every "ti" reads as "s."
The Royal Australian Mint handled production. Kiribati's remote position across the International Date Line — the nation straddles both the eastern and western hemispheres — complicated even basic questions of standardized timekeeping during the independence transition.
