Part of a broad wave of fractional gold "tribute" issues that flooded the collector market in the 2010s and 2020s, this piece was struck under license using Solomon Islands' authority — a jurisdiction with no historical connection to either monarch depicted. The arrangement is purely commercial: Pacific island nations routinely lease their issuing rights to private minting operations in exchange for royalties, producing coins that will never circulate and were never intended to.
