| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large manta ray (Manta birostris) dominates the upper field, depicted in fine detail with its distinctive wing-like pectoral fins and cephalic lobes rendered in relief, evoking the marine conservation theme of the WWF series. In the lower right, a stylized hawksbill sea turtle rests amid coral or sea vegetation beside a rising sun motif. The denomination $20 appears in large numerals across the lower field, serving as the primary legend on this conservation commemorative issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fiji's 1978 conservation series was issued under the umbrella of a WWF-backed program that prompted several Pacific and Caribbean nations to mint silver commemoratives highlighting endangered local species. The initiative was as much a fundraising mechanism as a numismatic one — a portion of proceeds was directed toward conservation efforts, which was still a novel arrangement for government mints at the time.
The .925 fineness places it among the higher-purity issues of the series across participating nations.
