| Obverse description | Right-facing diademed effigy of Queen Elizabeth II occupies the central field within a beaded inner circle, rendered in high relief. Below the portrait, the inscription '1oz .999 FINE SILVER' and the date '2021' appear in the lower field. The legend 'TOKELAU' arcs across the upper portion of the coin outside the beaded border, while 'ELIZABETH II' runs vertically along the right and 'TWO DOLLARS' along the left. A stylised Cthulhu emblem is engraved at the base of the obverse field, beneath the portrait. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a deeply relief-struck figure of Cthulhu, the cosmic entity from H.P. Lovecraft's mythos, shown as a vast, tentacled creature with outstretched clawed limbs and wide-spread wings rising from a submerged, ruined cityscape. The design conveys a sense of immense scale and eldritch menace, with selective black enamelling accentuating the eyes and claws. The surrounding legend, rendered in a stylised runic-inspired Latin script, reads 'IN HIS HOUSE AT R`LYEH DEAD CTHULHU WAITS DREAMING' encircling the entire design. |
