| Descripción del anverso |
The obverse features the national coat of arms of Vanuatu centrally placed within a raised circular border, depicting a Melanesian warrior in traditional dress holding a spear and a namele fern frond, set against a backdrop of crossed fern fronds. The legend 'RIPABLIK BLONG VANUATU' arcs around the upper portion of the inner circle, with 'VANUATU' prominently inscribed below, and the national motto 'LONG GOD YUMI STANAP' appearing on a scroll beneath the central device. The denomination '50 VATU' and date '2024' flank the upper legend, while the specifications '500g · Ag .999' are inscribed to the lower right of the inner circle. The entire composition is set within an elaborate shaped field formed by swirling, flame-tipped phoenix feathers radiating outward, giving the coin its distinctive non-circular silhouette reminiscent of outstretched wings. The finish is antique, imparting a rich, aged silvery patina to the finely detailed relief. |

| Descripción del reverso |
The reverse presents a dramatically rendered phoenix in full ascent, occupying the entirety of the shaped field with its broad wings fully extended and upswept, rendered in vivid polychrome enamel coloring of deep crimson, burnt orange, and gold. The mythical bird is depicted with highly detailed individual feathers, a fierce hooked beak turned to the viewer's right, and talons grasping a golden ornament. Scattered throughout the wing plumage are multiple applied red crystal accents, simulating burning embers. The field behind the phoenix is worked in antique-finished silver with deeply sculpted, swirling flame textures, providing dramatic contrast to the colorful central figure. The overall composition conveys dynamic upward motion, entirely consistent with the coin's 'Phoenix Ascendant' theme. |
