| Reverse description | A powerful Mustang horse galloping at full stride toward the viewer, depicted in dynamic high relief with its mane and tail streaming dramatically in the wind. The composition is set against a detailed Western landscape featuring sparse prairie grasses, a gnarled bare tree to the left, and a rocky mesa formation to the right. The legend MUSTANG arcs along the upper portion of the field, while the inscription 1 oz Fine Silver 999 appears in the lower exergual area in a cursive script. |

| Additional information |
Tokelau has become a prolific issuer of bullion and collector silver under New Zealand's administrative oversight, producing coins with no relationship to local commerce — the territory's roughly 1,500 residents use the New Zealand dollar in daily life. This Mustang issue is part of a broader licensed series capitalizing on American iconography for the international collector market.
The five-dollar face value is nominal, set by Tokelau ordinance purely to satisfy legal tender requirements for the series.
