| Additional information |
The Solomon Islands has issued commemorative coinage under Elizabeth II's effigy well past the point where most Commonwealth realms had updated their currency portraits — a bureaucratic inertia that produced a peculiar posthumous category, as Elizabeth died in September 2022, the same year this piece was struck. The "France" designation places this within a topical series, not a circulation issue; it never moved through any till.
