Inscriptions encircling the rim include, issuing country “TOKELAU” and the legal value “5 DOLLARS” in the upper hemisphere of the coin while “1 OZ FINE SILVER 999” and “ELIZABETH II – TOKELAU” can be found in the lower half.   The issue date of 2020 is divided with with two digits on either side of the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II and is surrounded by a highly ornate geometric background.  An attractive rim-band finishes the overall design quite nicely.
