| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field features a vivid multicolor applied scene depicting an underwater coral reef ecosystem viewed as if through a circular window, with a tropical atoll visible at the surface above. Two yellow tropical fish with dark vertical striping dominate the foreground, accompanied by an orange starfish, green and red coral formations, sea anemones, and a school of small blue fish swimming in the mid-distance against a deep blue field. The commemorative legend INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF THE REEF arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, while the denomination 5 RUFIYAA appears in Latin script along the lower border, accompanied by the Thaana numeral inscription ރުފިޔާ at the lower left. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The International Year of the Reef was a 1997 global campaign coordinated by the International Coral Reef Initiative, and the Maldives — whose entire territory sits barely a meter above sea level on average — had more immediate political motivation than most nations to participate. Rising sea temperatures and coral bleaching had already begun visibly damaging the atolls by the mid-1990s, making this issue something closer to policy statement than ceremonial coinage.
