| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse continues the shaped silhouette of the stylized Terracotta Army warrior, presenting a front-facing, cartoonish yet detailed rendition of an armored Chinese warrior figure. The soldier's smiling face features arched brows and a broad grin, with elaborately engraved armor covering the torso and shoulders rendered in fine line work characteristic of the original terracotta sculptures. The warrior's hands are positioned at the front of the body in a clasped or offering gesture. The design employs a combination of frosted relief and mirrored proof fields to distinguish the figure's features and armored detail from the highly polished background. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fiji has issued commemorative silver under Reserve Bank authority since the 1970s, but this piece belongs to a much more recent wave of licensed Chinese cultural-theme coins produced largely for the collector market rather than domestic circulation. The Terracotta Army was discovered in 1974 by farmers digging a well near Xi'an — one of the most consequential archaeological finds of the twentieth century, eventually revealing an estimated 8,000 figures guarding the tomb of Qin Shi Huang.
Fiji's nominal denomination gives the coin legal tender status while keeping production costs outside Chinese mint jurisdiction.
