| Reverse description | A detailed depiction of the Palazzo Pubblico (Public Palace) of San Marino, the seat of government located in the City of San Marino, occupies the centre of the rectangular field, rendered with architectural precision showing its crenellated tower, Gothic-arched windows, and rusticated stonework. A stylised city skyline silhouette appears along the lower portion of the field. In the upper left, a globe motif is struck in the field, while the date 2018 is inscribed in the upper right. The legend SAN MARINO is engraved in large characters along the bottom of the field. |

| Additional information |
San Marino has minted its own coinage since 1864, but this piece is part of a broader wave of sub-gram and fractional silver issues produced for the collector market under Pacific island nation authorities, which hold legal tender status while bearing no practical relationship to their nominal issuers. The pairing of a San Marino subject with Solomon Islands authority is purely a licensing arrangement.
