| Reverse description | Detailed engraved depiction of the Christ the Redeemer statue (Cristo Redentor) atop Corcovado mountain in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, shown with arms outstretched against a panoramic aerial backdrop of the surrounding cityscape, mountain ridges, and clouded sky. The inscription CHRIST THE REDEEMER appears to the left of the statue in the mid-field. In the lower left field, a circular logo incorporating the numeral 7 and the text WONDERS identifies this coin as part of the Seven Wonders of the World series. The lower segment of the coin bears the legend WONDERS of the WORLD in stylized lettering, separated from the central design by a decorative band. The entire composition is framed by the same geometric patterned border as the obverse. |

| Additional information |
Christ the Redeemer was completed in 1931 after nearly a decade of construction, funded largely by Brazilian Catholics and engineered by Heitor da Silva Costa with the Art Deco stonework executed by French sculptor Paul Landowski. The Solomon Islands has no historical or geographic connection to the monument — this is a bullion-adjacent collector issue capitalizing on global landmark recognition, a category that has flooded the market since the mid-2010s.
At 0.31 g of .9999 gold housed in a 45 mm format, the coin's physical proportions are almost entirely packaging. The gold content is nominal.
