| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central depiction of a Spanish 100 Escudos gold coin (Centen) issued in 1609 under the reign of King Felipe III of Spain, rendered in high relief. The design faithfully reproduces the original coin's imagery and inscriptions, including the royal arms and the characteristic legends of the Spanish Habsburg monetary tradition. Surrounding inscriptions identify the coin as part of the Most Valuable Gold Coins in the World series, with the denomination and year 1609 prominently displayed. The legends MOST VALUABLE GOLD COINS IN THE WORLD and 100 ESCUDOS 1609 frame the central motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to a series issued by the Solomon Islands that repurposes its nominal face value as little more than legal tender formality — the actual subject is the Portuguese 100 Escudos struck during the reign of Philip III (Philip II of Portugal) in 1609, a coin produced while the Iberian Union placed the Portuguese crown under Habsburg rule. That political arrangement, forced following the extinction of the Aviz dynasty in 1580, fundamentally redirected Portuguese colonial revenue flows through Madrid for six decades.
The 45 mm diameter against a 0.311 g gold weight identifies this immediately as a decorative restrike with an inserted coin replica rather than a struck bullion piece of conventional proportions.
