| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and collar. The portrait is executed after the design by Dominique Duvivier, as indicated by the engraver's initials 'DT' visible beneath the bust. The peripheral legend reads 'CHARLES III · 2025 · SOLOMON ISLANDS' arcing around the upper portion of the coin, with '· HALF DOLLAR ·' inscribed along the lower arc. The entire surface is finished in gold plating, giving the obverse a prooflike appearance. |

The flag-raising on Iwo Jima on February 23, 1945 — the second raising, staged for photographer Joe Rosenthal — became the most reproduced photograph of the 20th century and the basis for the Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington. Solomon Islands has no historical connection to the battle; the island chain, though a genuine Pacific Theater battleground in 1942–43, played no part in the Iwo Jima campaign. This is a novelty bullion-adjacent piece, gold-plated iron rather than a precious metal issue, produced for the collector souvenir market rather than any monetary purpose.
