| Reverse description | Central field displays a vibrant polychrome enamel seascape featuring a large paper nautilus (Nautilus pompilius) in right profile, its characteristic ribbed and reddish-orange striped shell rendered in fine naturalistic detail, positioned at the lower right of the field. An array of colourful coral formations and marine flora occupies the lower left foreground. Above the ocean horizon, a luminous yellow moon rises against a deep blue sky with scattered clouds, evoking a nocturnal Pacific seascape. The legend INDEPENDENCE OCTOBER 1994 arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. The polished raised rim is encircled by a beaded border. |
