| Beschrijving voorzijde | A left-facing perched Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus nesiotes), the endemic Fijian subspecies locally known as 'Ga ni Vatu', occupies the central field. The legend 'FIJI' and the date appear to the right of the bird, accompanied by the local Fijian name of the species. This design replaced the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II following Fiji's suspension from the Commonwealth of Nations in 2009, a situation that remained until September 2014. The subspecies depicted is also found across New Caledonia and Vanuatu. All inscriptions are rendered in the Latin script. |

Fiji's shift to brass-plated steel for this denomination was part of a broader Pacific-region coinage rationalization driven by rising metal costs in the late 2000s. The move mirrored similar transitions across Oceania, where nickel and cupro-nickel blanks had become economically untenable for low-denomination circulation coinage.
The "small type" designation distinguishes this from the earlier, physically larger two-dollar coin — a deliberate size reduction intended to differentiate it from the one-dollar coin, a chronic point of public confusion in daily commerce.
