The Flying Fish is the 7th release of the 12-coin series. The Flying Fish has a torpedo shape which helps generate speed to break through the water's surface. Their pectoral fins are large which helps them get airborne. Sailors often find them on the decks of ships.
Obverse: The likeness of Queen Elizabeth II along with the Tuluma, which is the national symbol of Tokelau. The Tuluma is a wooden tackle box used by the fishermen of Tokelau, inscribed with “Tokelau mot e Atua” meaning “Tokelau for God,” referencing the influence of Christianity in Tokelau.
Reverse: Shows two of the Flying Fish, one in the foreground and the second one a little smaller and in the background. The coin has graphics in the background representing the water of the ocean.
