| Obverse description | Central field depicts two traditional Polynesian sailing vessels with triangular sails navigating coastal waters, rendered in fine relief against a horizon. In the background, the dramatic volcanic mountain peaks of Mo'orea rise prominently, their silhouettes filling the upper field. The legend 'MO'OREA' appears in large raised lettering across the upper portion of the field, with the date '2025' inscribed above it near the top edge. The overall composition evokes the iconic tropical landscape and maritime heritage of the island. The design is contained within a seven-lobed scalloped border. |

| Additional information |
Moorea has no independent monetary authority and issues no legal tender. "Poe Rava" coins of this type are fantasy pieces — privately produced collectibles with no issuing government, no central bank authorization, and no circulation history. The name evokes Polynesian pearl culture, and the island itself is real enough, but the numismatic status is not.
