| Obverse description | Fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, occupying the upper portion of the coin field, with the central round perforation forming an integral design element. To the lower left of the hole, a small coat of arms of Samoa is rendered in fine detail; to the right of the hole, the Chinese character '夀' (longevity) appears in bold relief. The surrounding legend carries the queen's name, denomination, issuer, and date, while the portrait reflects the Ian Rank-Broadley style characteristic of Commonwealth coinage of this period. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark Elizabeth II's record as the longest-reigning British monarch, surpassing Queen Victoria's 63 years and 216 days in September 2015. She died in September 2022, the same year this piece was struck, making it an inadvertent memorial issue rather than the celebratory coin it was designed to be.
