| Reverse description | A bold, stylized rendering of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco dominates the entire rectangular field, depicted in an Art Deco-inspired graphic style with strong geometric lines emphasizing the bridge's iconic suspension tower, main cables, and deck structure. Radiating diagonal lines in the upper right field evoke sunlight streaming over the bay, while a distant secondary tower and a small vessel on the water are visible in the middle ground. The legend 'SAN FRANCISCO' is prominently inscribed in the upper right field in large capital letters, with 'GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE' in a smaller legend immediately below. The date '2024' appears in the lower right portion of the field. |

| Additional information |
At 0.155 grams of .9999 gold, this is a fractional micro-issue — one of the smallest gold coins commercially produced, struck by a private mint on behalf of the Solomon Islands monetary authority as a legal tender novelty rather than a circulating instrument. The Solomon Islands has issued dozens of such micro-gold pieces under licensing arrangements, typically timed to royal or commemorative occasions. Charles III's accession following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022 generated a wave of these issues across Pacific island jurisdictions that retain the British monarch as head of state.
