Obverse lettering · ELIZABETH II TOKELAU 2018 · IRB TOKELAU MO TE ATUA ~ Five Dollars - 1 oz 999 Silver ~
Reverse description A gilt ram, representing the zodiac sign of Aries, depicted in dynamic mid-leap across a stylised nocturnal sky. The animal's large, curling horns are prominently rendered in the upper right portion of the design. The background features a star field, with the principal stars of the Aries constellation highlighted in larger relief and interconnected by incised lines, allowing the viewer to trace the constellation's traditional pattern. The gilt treatment applied to the ram creates a vivid contrast against the frosted silver background.

Additional information

Tokelau's collectible coin program is administered through New Zealand's financial system, as the territory has no independent monetary authority. These zodiac issues were produced for the bullion and collector market — Tokelau itself has a population under 1,500 spread across three atolls, with no domestic coin circulation to speak of.
