Design of the Avalokitesvara coin

The bodhisattva Avalokitesvara is depicted on the reverse of the Avalokitesvara. Because of the high relief of 1.9 mm, the kind countenance of Avalokitesvara is highlighted. On the obverse side of the coin, you can find the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Also the text 'SAMOA' is written here, added by the value of 5 Dollars.

Avalokitesvara

Avalokitesvara is known in Asia by various names that the bodhisattva took on. The names reflect the ways that different cultures represent him. In Sri Lanka, Tibet and Southeast Asia for example, Avalokitesvara is linked with royalty, but in China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam, Guanyin is seen as the exemplar of wisdom for mediators and as the ‘Goddess of Mercy’. Bodhisattvas are depicted as masculine in art despite transcending gender or other worldly distinctions. This is also the case with the Buddha.
