| Obverse description | A densely clustered grouping of taro plants (Colocasia esculenta) fills the central field, depicted with characteristic heart-shaped leaves rising on slender stalks from a common base, rendered in naturalistic relief. The country name TONGA appears as a curved legend along the upper rim, while the denomination 2 SENITI is inscribed along the lower rim. The overall design reflects the FAO series' emphasis on staple food crops and agricultural self-sufficiency. |
