| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features a detailed high-relief depiction of the iconic nine-storey wooden pagoda tower of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, rendered in fine numismatic relief against a mirror-polished field, with stylized cliff faces flanking the structure on either side. In the lower left, an inset circular medallion bears a right-facing effigy of King Charles III, uncrowned and in civilian dress, surrounded by the circular legend '20 CENTS · CHARLES III · SAMOA ·' and the date '2025'. Below the pagoda, in the lower right field, the site's name appears in large Chinese characters '敦煌莫高窟' above the English transliteration 'DUNHUANG MOGAO GROTTOES', both rendered in raised lettering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Samoa's current circulating coinage series was redesigned following the country's controversial calendar switch in 2011, when Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi moved the nation across the International Date Line to align trade with Australia and New Zealand — skipping December 29th and 30th entirely. The heavy copper-nickel weight of this issue places it firmly in the territory of circulation coinage designed for durability in a humid Pacific island environment, where coin turnover through local markets and remittance economies runs high.
