| Obverse description | Within a recessed circular cartouche positioned to the left of the flan, the Fijian coat of arms is displayed in high relief against a stippled field. The legend FIJI 2022 arcs above the arms, with the denomination 1 DOLLAR inscribed below, all in Latin characters. The cartouche is set against the elaborately sculpted surface of the dragon's coiled body, which dominates the broader shaped flan. The overall design integrates the heraldic element seamlessly into the sculptural composition of the piece. |

| Reverse description | A highly detailed high-relief depiction of the Welsh Red Dragon curled in upon itself in a fetal position, its scaled body, membranous wings, and serpentine tail coiling to fill the entire shaped flan. The dragon's head is rendered at lower left with an open-mouthed, fire-breathing expression, its fearsome features finely detailed with horns, ridges, and prominent eyes. The reverse bears no legend or inscription, allowing the sculptural artistry of the dragon motif to dominate the field entirely. The antique silver finish enhances the dramatic three-dimensional relief, accentuating the intricate scale and wing textures throughout. |
