| Reverse description | A bust-length portrait of Dr. Wilhelm Solf in left profile occupies the central field, depicted in full colonial governor's uniform with aiguillettes, medals, and a plumed hat. A tropical landscape with thatched Samoan fale (traditional open-sided dwellings) and palm trees forms the background. The engraver's initials ER appear discreetly to the right of the portrait. The circumferential legend DR. WILHELM SOLF GOVERNOR OF WESTERN SAMOA 1900·1910 arcs around the upper and lateral fields, while the issue year * 1980 * is displayed in the lower exergue, separated from the design by a horizontal line and flanked by five-pointed stars. |
