Fiji has issued commemorative silver under its own authority since the late colonial period, but its modern bullion program leans heavily on licensed cultural content from foreign nations — this piece being a collaboration tied to China's state-promoted heritage export of the Terracotta Army, discovered near Xi'an in 1974 by farmers digging a well. The army was commissioned by Qin Shi Huang, China's first emperor, buried with him around 210 BCE and numbering an estimated 8,000 figures.
The 155.5g format places this in the 5-troy-ounce category favored by the collector bullion market in the early 2020s.
