10 Dollars - Charles III Richard the Lionheart

Part of the long-running series of oversized, wafer-thin gold minors produced for the collector market under Pacific island issuing authorities — Solomon Islands among the most frequently used. At 0.31 g, the gold content is negligible; the face value is purely nominal, bearing no relationship to any circulating currency of the issuer. Richard I's connection to the Solomon Islands is, of course, nonexistent, which places this squarely in the category of licensed-theme bullion novelty rather than anything approaching a national coinage issue.
