| Beschrijving keerzijde | A figurative scene illustrating the Eighth Commandment ('You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour') is depicted in relief. A standing figure raises an admonishing finger toward a second figure, conveying the act of false testimony or accusation. The Latin text of the commandment 'NON LOQUERIS CONTRA PROXIMUM TUUM FALSUM TESTIMONIUM' arcs around the upper portion of the design, with the English translation below. The Roman numeral 'VIII' and a tablet bearing the numeral sequence of all Ten Commandments appear in the field, along with the date '2012'. |

Samoa's "Eight Commandments" series drew on the constitutional framework that has governed the islands since independence in 1962 — the first Polynesian nation to achieve it in the twentieth century. The constitution's founding principles, rooted in both Christian values and Fa'a Samoa customary tradition, were considered significant enough to commemorate individually across multiple issues.
KM#265 corresponds to the eighth of these constitutional precepts. The series was produced for the collector market rather than circulation, which accounts for the relatively modest silver weight against the oversized planchet.
