| Reverse description | Central device features a highly detailed depiction of a traditional Kiribati te karawa headdress — a ceremonial ornament composed of crossed frigate bird wings with a central patterned roundel of interlocking scale-like motifs, rendered in high relief and occupying the upper and central field. The denomination numeral 50 is inscribed in large bold figures in the lower central field, with the word CENTS in smaller capitals immediately below, both set against a plain field. |
