| Obverse description | The obverse features the Fijian coat of arms at centre, depicting a shield supported by two Fijian warriors in traditional dress, with a British lion above and a Fijian canoe at the shield's top. The design is framed by a decorative Greek key border pattern running along the coin's periphery. The legend 'FIJI 2024' arcs above the arms, while 'TWO DOLLARS' appears in the lower field. The weight and fineness designation '1 oz .999 FINE SILVER' is inscribed within the design, accompanied by the national motto 'Rerevaka na Kalou ka doka na Tui' (Fear God and honour the King/Queen). |

| Additional information |
Fiji has issued commemorative dragon-themed pieces in previous lunar cycles, but this 2024 entry falls within a crowded field of Pacific-nation silver issues that leverage low-tax mint licensing arrangements — Fiji itself has no functioning domestic mint and contracts production to foreign facilities. The KM#1194 attribution places it within a post-2010 boom in Fijian-licensed coinage that has little connection to the island nation beyond the legal tender designation.
