| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Charles III, sculpted in high relief against a deeply recessed field decorated with concentric engine-turned rings that create a dramatic optical effect. The portrait, modelled by Martin Jennings and initialled 'DT' at the truncation, depicts the King in contemporary dress with a suit collar visible at the neck. The surrounding legend is arranged in a continuous circular band reading 'CHARLES III - 2024' across the upper field and 'TOKELAU' at the right, with '5 DOLLARS - 1 OZ FINE SILVER 9999' completing the inscription along the lower arc. |

| Additional information |
Tokelau has no mint of its own and issues coins largely as a vehicle for the New Zealand-administered territory's licensed bullion and collector programs — this piece is part of that framework rather than any domestic monetary need. The "Vivat Humanitas" series under Charles III continues a format established during Elizabeth II's reign, pairing the new monarch's effigy with humanist themes across annual releases targeting the bullion collector market.
KM#430 is a 2024 first-year-of-type under Charles III's portrait, whose obverse die was authorized following his accession in September 2022.
