| Aanvullende informatie |
The Battle of Britain commemorative market has become genuinely crowded, with dozens of issuers producing silver-plated pieces annually for the collector trade. Solomon Islands — a Commonwealth realm with Elizabeth II as head of state — issues a high volume of such pieces through licensing arrangements with European coin marketing firms, bearing little connection to the event commemorated beyond the legal authority to strike in her name.
Iron core with silver plating rather than solid silver. Worth noting for storage purposes, as the base metal is susceptible to corrosion if the plating is breached.
