| Additional information |
The Danish connection here is the commemorative subject, not the issuer — Solomon Islands has operated a substantial collector-coin program since the 1970s, licensing foreign themes to generate revenue through numismatic sales rather than circulation. These pieces are struck for the collector market and see no use as currency.
