| Beschrijving keerzijde | A heraldic eagle displayed with wings spread, holding an olive branch in its right talon and a sheaf of arrows in its left, closely modelled on the design of the historic 1787 Brasher Doubloon struck by goldsmith Ephraim Brasher. The eagle's breast bears a shield charged with the initials BB within an oval cartouche. An arc of thirteen stars appears above the eagle's head, and two flanking olive wreaths frame the central design. The legend UNUM * E * PLURIBUS arcs along the upper field, while the inscriptions 1787 and 1/2 G .9999 FINEST GOLD appear in the lower field. A small circular v10 privy mark is positioned to the right within the wreath border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The original 1787 Brasher Doubloon — struck by New York goldsmith Ephraim Brasher after authorities rejected his petition to mint copper coinage — became one of the most valuable American coins ever sold, with a specimen fetching over $7.4 million in 2011. Brasher punched his "EB" hallmark on the eagle's breast of most known examples, though one controversially bears it on the wing.
The Solomon Islands provided the legal tender framework here, as it routinely does for commemorative bullion issues it has no organic connection to.
