Reverse description The reverse presents a full-color photographic-quality image of a seated Boxer puppy rendered in naturalistic brown and white tones, positioned centrally in the field against a stylized silver background featuring flowing Art Nouveau-inspired decorative motifs. Above the puppy, a faceted blue star-shaped gemstone is inlaid into the field, serving as a distinctive decorative element. The arching legend 'MY GREAT PROTECTOR' runs along the upper periphery, while the breed name 'BOXER' is inscribed in raised letters along the lower exergue.

Additional information

Part of a broader Pacific-themed bullion and collector series issued under licence through the Reserve Bank of Fiji, this piece belongs to a run of novelty silver rounds that used Fiji's issuing authority largely as a vehicle for international collector marketing rather than domestic monetary policy. The "stone incrusted" finish — a resin or mineral inlay applied post-strike — is a production technique common to several Pacific island commemorative programs of the early 2010s, most of them distributed through European and Asian wholesale channels well outside Fiji itself.
