| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a high-relief allegorical scene in the silver center illustrating the Sixth Commandment against adultery, depicting a standing robed male figure on the left and a reclining female figure on the right set against an architectural Gothic arch background. The legend NON MOECHABERIS arcs prominently along the upper portion of the gold-plated outer ring, with the English translation 'You shall not commit adultery' inscribed in smaller lettering within the inner field. The lower center of the silver field bears the inscription VI. LEX, and below that two gold-plated stone tablets of the Ten Commandments display Roman numerals I through X. The date 2010 appears in the exergue beneath the tablets. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Samoa's "Ten Commandments" coin series was issued as a devotional collector set, each piece corresponding to one of the biblical commandments. The sixth — "You shall not murder" — sits in the middle of the moral sequence, and the series as a whole reflects the country's deeply embedded Christianity, formalized when "Fa'avae i le Atua Samoa" ("Samoa is founded on God") was written into the national motto at independence in 1962.
The bi-metallic format, pairing a silver center with a gold-plated outer ring, was a deliberate production choice to evoke ecclesiastical luxury on a limited issue budget.
