| Beschrijving keerzijde | A full-colour photographic likeness of Sir Winston Churchill dominates the central field, depicted in three-quarter view raising his right hand in his iconic V-for-Victory gesture, dressed in black coat and bow tie. Behind him, a composite wartime scene features bomb-damaged buildings to the left and the dome of St Paul's Cathedral to the right, evoking the London Blitz. Three Spitfire aircraft rendered in gold relief appear in the upper field. Along the upper arc, the raised legend 'CHURCHILL'S VICTORY' frames the design, while a prominent colour-printed banner in the lower field bears the inscription 'VE-DAY-80' above the commemorative dates '1945–2025'. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of the broader commemorative output tied to the 80th anniversary of VE Day, this piece belongs to a category of gold-plated iron collectibles that have proliferated under the Solomon Islands' licensing arrangements — a jurisdiction whose coin program is administered almost entirely for overseas collector markets rather than domestic circulation. Churchill's wartime premiership is well-documented territory, but the specific "Victory" framing draws on the May 8, 1945 celebrations and his balcony appearance at the Ministry of Health.
Gold-plated iron is prone to corrosion at the plating seams under humid storage conditions.
