| Obverse description | Diademed and draped right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, with the engraver's initials IRB incuse below the truncation. The legend ELIZABETH II ~ TOKELAU and the date 2015 arc around the upper field, flanked by decorative geometric latticework in the Tokelauan traditional style. Below the effigy, the denomination inscription 1oz. 999 SILVER FIVE DOLLARS is prominently displayed, with a small depiction of a traditional Tokelauan vessel at the base. The motto TOKELAU MO TE ATUA appears on a ribbon in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
Tokelau's numismatic program is administered by New Zealand on behalf of the territory and has been used since the 2010s to generate government revenue — a practical necessity for an atoll nation with no agricultural exports, no airport, and a population under 1,500. The "Coffee" issue belongs to a broader series of themed collector coins that have little to do with Tokelau's daily life or history, produced primarily for the international bullion and novelty collector market.
