| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Samoa occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield bearing the Southern Cross constellation of five stars on a dark ground above stylised ocean waves and a coconut palm, surmounted by a Latin cross, and encircled by two laurel branches tied at the base. A scroll beneath the shield bears the national motto in the Samoan language. The legend SAMOA · 2022 arcs along the upper periphery, flanked by the inscriptions 1 TROY OUNCE to the left and 999 FINE SILVER to the right. The denomination 2 TALA appears in the lower field. The design is framed by a beaded inner border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a circular arrangement of nineteen Mayan calendar glyphs rendered in relief, forming a ring that occupies the majority of the field. At the centre, a crouching human figure is shown in profile, bearing a substantial load secured by a tumpline across the forehead, rendered in the distinctive iconographic style of Mesoamerican art. The composition references the tzolk'in or ritual Mayan calendar tradition. The design fills the field to the beaded inner border with no additional legends. |

Samoa has no historical connection to the Maya civilization — this is a bullion-adjacent commemorative issued under the Pacific island nation's licensing arrangements, a common practice where sovereign mint rights are leased to private distributors seeking a legal tender vehicle for themed collector pieces. The Mayan Long Count calendar, which anchored the now-debunked 2012 apocalypse narrative, continues to drive commercial coin programs a decade later.
