| Obverse description | One of the hexagonal panels of the spherical football-shaped coin bears the right-facing effigy of King Charles III in high relief against a guilloché-patterned field, rendered in antiqued silver finish. The legend CHARLES III · 2026 · SOLOMON ISLANDS arcs around the portrait panel, with the denomination and fineness inscriptions 3 oz · $10 · Ag 999 positioned below the effigy. The surrounding panels are struck in the form of a traditional association football, alternating between antiqued silver relief panels bearing symbolic motifs — including an eagle, a crown, floral arabesques, stars with a curved ribbon motif, and architectural elements referencing the host nations — and coloured pentagonal panels in deep blue, red, and teal, decorated with culturally distinctive patterns. The entire surface is treated with an antiqued finish that accentuates the sculptural relief of each panel. |

| Additional information |
The 2026 FIFA World Cup marks the first edition of the tournament expanded to 48 teams, jointly hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico — the only three-nation host arrangement in the competition's history. Canada's inclusion is particularly notable given the country had never previously qualified for a men's World Cup since 1986, and here co-hosts a tournament on home soil.
Solomon Islands has no history of FIFA World Cup participation and issues coins of this type purely as legal-tender bullion for the collector market, a practice common among Pacific island nations whose mints operate through licensing arrangements with private producers, typically in Europe or Australia.
