| Additional information |
The "Lady Britain" branding belongs to a line of fractional gold issues produced by the British Royal Mint under licensing arrangements for various Commonwealth territories, with Solomon Islands serving as the nominal issuing authority. The 2022 date places this outside the original 2015 series release, suggesting a reissue or continuation strike. At 0.311 g — one-hundredth of a troy ounce — these were designed explicitly for accessible bullion investment rather than circulation, and no examples ever entered the Solomon Islands money supply.
