| Obverse description | This rectangular ingot-format piece features a raised circular coin design at its centre, within which appears the uncrowned effigy of King Charles III facing left, modelled by engraver Dominique Thiébaut, whose initials 'DT' appear in the lower field. The circular legend around the effigy reads 'CHARLES III · 2026 · SOLOMON ISLANDS', with the denomination '· 10 DOLLARS ·' inscribed below the portrait. Above the central coin device, in the upper field of the rectangular flan, the licensed branding 'THE WORLD OF PETER RABBIT™' appears with the Beatrix Potter facsimile signature and a small vignette of a running rabbit, all rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished ground. The weight indication '1/100 oz' is prominently displayed in the lower margin of the flan. |

| Additional information |
This piece belongs to a wave of fractional gold issues from Pacific sovereign mints-for-hire that have flooded the numismatic market since the mid-2010s, with the Solomon Islands lending its name and legal-tender status to products it neither designs nor distributes domestically. At 0.31 g, the gold content is nominal — roughly a tenth of a sovereign's worth — and the issue is priced almost entirely on collectible premium rather than bullion value.
