| Additional information |
Issued in 2023 as part of the wave of posthumous commemoratives following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022, this piece is one of hundreds of similar issues released by small-denomination Commonwealth territories and currency licensees capitalizing on the transition to Charles III. The Solomon Islands themselves use the Australian dollar in practice; the Central Bank issues collector coinage largely through contracted minting programs with no domestic circulation intended.
KM#2127 sits in a catalog sequence crowded with near-identical gold-plated issues. Collector demand has been modest at best.
