| Additional information |
Part of a broader wave of fractional gold issues produced for the Pacific collector market in the early 2010s, this piece was struck at the Monnaie de Paris under contract — one of several mints producing branded collector gold for island-nation issuers with no domestic minting infrastructure. The Solomon Islands has never operated its own mint; all its coinage is produced abroad, with contracts distributed among European and Australian facilities depending on the series.
The Paris mint's .9999 fineness standard, stricter than the traditional .999 used by many sovereign gold issues, reflects French refining practice adopted mint-wide in the modern collector era.
