| Reverse description | A traditional Vanuatuan outrigger sailing canoe with a large triangular lateen sail is depicted centrally, rendered in fine detail showing the hull, outrigger float, and rigging. The background features a stylised geometric pattern of interlocking diamond motifs in relief, evoking traditional Melanesian mat-weaving designs. The denomination numeral 5 appears prominently to the left of centre in large relief, with the currency name VATU inscribed above it in smaller lettering. |
