| Obverse description | The full Coat of Arms of Fiji occupies the central field, supported by two Fijian warriors in traditional dress — one holding a spear to the left, the other holding a fan of foliage to the right. The shield displays a British lion passant in the chief, with four quartered sections depicting a sugar cane plant, a coconut palm, a dove of peace, and a bunch of bananas. A Fijian canoe under sail appears on the crest above the shield. A scroll at the base bears the national motto in Fijian script. The legend 'FIJI 2023' arcs above, '50 CENTS' appears at the bottom, and the inscriptions '1oz' and '.999 FINE SILVER' flank the arms in the field. |

| Additional information |
Fiji's name appears on a surprising range of modern bullion and collector issues despite the nation having no meaningful historical connection to the subjects depicted — the Royal Mint of Australia and various European minting houses have long used Pacific island sovereignties as convenient licensing partners for international collector series. This unicorn issue is one such product, its Fijian denomination a formality rather than a reflection of any domestic monetary purpose.
The KM#1131.1 designation suggests a numbered variant within a broader series, likely distinguished by privy mark or finish type.
