| Obverse description | The Fijian coat of arms occupies the centre of the field, featuring a quartered shield supported by two indigenous Fijian warriors holding spears, with a British lion above the shield and a Fijian canoe in the chief. A scroll beneath the supporters bears the national motto in the Fijian language. The legend FIJI arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination $5 appears in the lower field below the arms. |

| Reverse description | Two highly detailed Chinese-style dragons are depicted in mirror-image symmetry, their sinuous bodies intertwined at the centre of the scalloped field, each facing inward with open jaws, clawed feet, and flame-tipped tails extending toward the periphery. The composition fills the entire field in high relief, conveying dynamic energy and traditional East Asian artistic style. Below the dragon motif, the inscription records the date, weight, and fineness of the coin. |
