| Obverse description | The obverse features the Fijian coat of arms at centre, depicting a quartered shield supported by two Fijian warriors in traditional dress, one holding a spear to the left and one bearing a ceremonial object to the right. A sailing vessel surmounts the shield as crest, and a scroll below bears the national motto in the Fijian language. The legend FIJI 2022 arcs above the field, while the denomination 50 CENTS is inscribed along the lower rim. The fineness notation 1 OZ to the left and .999 FINE SILVER to the right flank the coat of arms in the field. |

| Additional information |
Fiji's Reserve Bank has issued a steady stream of themed bullion and collector pieces over the past decade, most produced under contract by overseas mints — this piece almost certainly struck by a European or Australian facility rather than anything domestic. The "Cats" designation places it squarely in the animal-themed collector coin market that expanded dramatically after 2010, driven largely by demand from Asian collectors and Western bullion stackers who crossed over into numismatics.
KM# 380 suggests relatively recent cataloguing. One troy ounce of .999 silver in a 40mm format is the industry-standard bullion-coin specification, making secondary market liquidity straightforward.
