| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a stylized representation of the solar system, showing the sun at center surrounded by planetary orbital rings with several planets rendered in relief against a finely lined field evoking the cosmos. The scene is presented on the half-circle flan with the curved edge at top and the flat edge at bottom. The Latin motto 'TEMPORA MUTANTUR' (Times change) is inscribed in a bold legend along the flat lower edge and continuing along the curved border, serving as the primary textual element of the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Kiribati's "Tempora Mutantur" series was issued partly as a revenue mechanism — the island nation, with virtually no domestic numismatic tradition, leaned heavily on foreign coin producers and international collector markets throughout the 1990s. KM#24a is the copper-nickel circulation-strike companion to a silver proof issue, a pairing common in Pacific island coinage programs of this period where the base-metal version technically qualifies as legal tender but was never intended to circulate.
The Latin phrase translates roughly as "times are changing" — drawn from the fuller Renaissance aphorism attributed to various sources, none definitively.
