| Obverse description | Right-facing uncrowned effigy of King Charles III, rendered in high relief against a polished field, with fine portrait detail including short hair and a collared jacket. The engraver's initials DT appear below the truncation. Surrounding the portrait is an ornate border of interlocking geometric Polynesian-style latticework patterns in low relief. The legend CHARLES III arcs along the upper left, TOKELAU along the upper right, and the year 2024 descends vertically at the right; the inscriptions FIVE DOLLARS, 1 OZ .999, and SILVER arc along the lower portion of the coin. |

| Additional information |
Tokelau has no mint of its own and no indigenous coinage tradition — its "national" issues are produced under contract, typically by the New Zealand Mint, as legal tender instruments for a territory whose entire population numbers under 1,500 people across three Pacific atolls. The Libra series belongs to a broader zodiac-themed collector program with no particular connection to the issuing territory beyond the administrative convenience of its crown dependency status.
Charles III's accession coinage from non-metropolitan territories proliferated rapidly after September 2022, with dozens of issuing authorities racing to update effigy rights.
