| Obverse lettering | QUEEN ELIZABETH II IRB 5oz 999 SILVER 2015 TUVALU 5 DOLLARS |
| Reverse description | The central field displays nine vividly coloured stylised heads of the dragon's sons from Chinese mythology, arranged in a dynamic composition filling the coin's face: each son is rendered in a distinct colour palette and bestial form, including a green serpentine creature, a yellow horned beast, a white dragon, a blue winged demon, a purple lion-like figure, a green armoured creature, a tiger-striped beast, a blue fanged creature, and a red phoenix-like figure. Above the composition, a large uncoloured dragon rendered in relief looms across the upper field, providing an imposing silver-toned backdrop. The legend DRAGON & HIS NINE SONS is inscribed along the lower periphery in raised Latin capitals against a stylised cloud motif. |
