| Additional information |
Samoa's modern commemorative program has leaned heavily on the Chinese cultural calendar since the mid-2010s, producing annual issues timed to Lunar New Year cycles and distributed primarily through Asian Pacific coin markets. The "Xing Shi" branding — loosely translating to "prosperous" or "thriving times" — is a recurring series title used across multiple Pacific island issuers, often produced by the same private minting contractors and distinguished mainly by the issuing jurisdiction's name on the legal tender authorization.
The 25 Sene denomination carries negligible face value against spot, making these purely collector-market pieces from inception.
