| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly stylized, cartoon-like bust of a piglet facing left, rendered in high antique relief and occupying the central field of the butterfly wing-shaped flan. The figure is depicted with large expressive eyes and a broad smiling snout, set against a richly detailed iridescent holographic background featuring interlocking geometric honeycomb and floral motifs with shifting multicolored luster. The Chinese character for pig (猪) appears in the upper right field, while the Latin inscription 'Pig' is positioned in the lower left field. |

Samoa's lunar series coins are struck under license arrangements common across Pacific island issuers, where the named central bank provides legal tender status while production and distribution are handled entirely by private minting and marketing firms — typically Australian or European. The coins do not circulate and are issued exclusively for the collector market.
The 2019 swine fever outbreak devastated pig populations across Southeast Asia and the Pacific, giving the 2023 Year of the Pig issue an unintended footnote in agricultural history.
