| Reverse description | A finely detailed relief depiction of a rat in profile facing left, rendered in a naturalistic East Asian artistic style, positioned centrally in the lower field of the fan-shaped planchet. Above and to the left, a blossoming magnolia branch with buds and open flowers extends across the upper field, adding an elegant botanical element. To the right of the rat, the Chinese character '鼠' (meaning Rat) is inscribed in the field, accompanied by the Latin transliteration 'Rat' beneath it. The legend '1/2 G .9999 FINEST GOLD' is inscribed along the upper border, confirming the coin's weight and fineness. |

| Additional information |
Part of a long-running Chinese lunar series issued under Solomon Islands authority, these fractional gold pieces are struck by the Perth Mint on behalf of the issuing territory. At half a gram of .9999 fine gold, the practical function is entirely as a bullion collectible — Solomon Islands has never had meaningful gold coinage in domestic circulation.
