| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a bold bust of Ratu Seru Epenisa Cakobau, the paramount chief and first King of Fiji, shown facing left in three-quarter profile with a distinctive traditional Fijian hairstyle and bearded visage, rendered in high relief. To the left of the portrait, the word 'BATI' appears in large raised letters. A beaded inner border frames a circular legend reading 'FIJIAN CULTURAL MINIMUM 18CT HALF OUNCE NATIVE', referencing the coin's gold content and cultural theme. The composition honors Fijian heritage and the historical significance of the Bati warrior class. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fiji's 1990 constitution — promulgated by the military-backed government of Sitiveni Rabuka following two coups in 1987 — entrenched ethnic Fijian political dominance and effectively disenfranchised the Indo-Fijian population. The Reserve Bank issued commemorative gold pieces during this constitutionally contentious period, a practice common among post-coup Pacific governments seeking to project institutional normalcy to international markets.
At .750 fineness, the alloy sits below the more conventional .900 or .999 used for most international bullion issues — a specification likely driven by cost and local minting constraints rather than any numismatic tradition.
