Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1975 Fiji 25 Dollars - Elizabeth II (King Cakobau) silver coin is that it features a unique portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting her wearing a traditional Fijian headdress, known as a "King Cakobau," which was worn by the Fijian chiefs in the 19th century. This design was created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the cession of Fiji to Great Britain in 1874. The coin's design is a nod to the rich cultural heritage of Fiji and its history with the British monarchy.
