| Reverse description | Panoramic desert scene depicting the three Great Pyramids of Giza rendered in detailed stonework, occupying the upper and central field against a light background. In the foreground, a caravan of three camels proceeds in silhouette from left to right across a sandy dune, while a cluster of palm trees stands to the right of the scene. The legend PYRAMIDS OF GIZA appears at the top of the field in capital letters. Along the right border, oriented vertically, the date 2022, the mint logo, and the gold fineness Au 999.9 are inscribed. |

At 0.31 g, this is among the smallest gold coins in regular issue — a format pioneered largely by the Perth Mint and widely adopted by Pacific island sovereigns as a vehicle for legal-tender gold collectibles with minimal metal cost. Solomon Islands has no domestic mint, so production is contracted abroad, and the "legal tender" status is a nominal arrangement that carries no practical monetary function in the issuing country.
