| Beschrijving keerzijde | A central composition depicting multiple symbols of agricultural abundance arranged around a tall palm tree. A cow stands prominently in the centre foreground, flanked by a hen to the left and a pig to the right; a bee is shown in the upper right field. In the lower field, a fish is depicted beneath the cow, with a bunch of bananas to the lower left and what appear to be root vegetables or peanuts to the lower right. Decorative leafy sprigs frame the lower sides of the design. The Tongan legend 'FAKALAHI MEʻAKAI' (meaning 'Grow More Food') curves along the upper rim, and the denomination '2 PAʻANGA' is inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization coin program, which ran from the late 1960s through the 1970s and persuaded dozens of nations to mint coins bearing agricultural themes as a form of development messaging. Tonga's participation was modest but consistent. The FAO program coins were in many cases struck in larger-than-necessary denominations and sizes specifically to appeal to collectors — circulation was never the real point.
At 45mm, this is among the more physically imposing issues from the program.
