| Reverse description | Central field features a full color, three-dimensional rendering of the FIFA World Cup Trophy — the iconic gold sculpture of two human figures supporting a faceted globe — set against a graduated grey background within a concentric circular border highlighted in gold color. A stylized FIFA official emblem appears at the base of the design, flanked by decorative dot elements. Football motifs are present at left and right of the inner border. The bilingual circumferential legend, in both Arabic and Latin scripts, reads across the upper arc, with the trademark symbol present at lower right of the central device. |

| Additional information |
The "Cup" designation almost certainly ties this issue to the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar — a tournament that generated a predictable flood of licensed and unlicensed commemorative issues from smaller Commonwealth nations whose mints have leaned heavily on sports themes since the 1990s. Solomon Islands has no football federation of any particular standing, making the connection purely commercial.
