10 Dollars - Elizabeth II Leopard

White gold — an alloy typically achieved by mixing yellow gold with palladium or nickel — occupies an awkward commercial niche in numismatics, where its legal tender face value is nominal and its appeal is almost entirely collector-driven. Solomon Islands has leaned heavily into this format since the 2010s, licensing wildlife and nature themes through the Pobjoy Mint and similar private producers targeting the fractional gold market.

Elizabeth II died in September 2022, making this among the final issues to carry her effigy under a Solomon Islands mandate before the transition to Charles III.
