| Reverse description | The reverse of this rectangular gold piece commemorates the FIFA World Cup tournaments held in Russia (2018) and Qatar (2022), with a dynamic geometric composition filling the entire field. Stylised football motifs, including a soccer ball, goal imagery, and angular graphic elements evoking the flags and visual identities of both host nations, are arranged across the surface. The word RUSSIA appears diagonally in bold lettering on the left half of the field, while QATAR is inscribed vertically on the right half. The words Play and Cheer appear in Latin script alongside their Arabic equivalents لعب and شجع respectively, rendered in a bold commemorative graphic style. The dates 2018 and 2022 are inscribed in the upper-left and lower-right corners respectively. |

| Additional information |
This miniature gold piece belongs to a broad series of bilateral "friendship" issues produced for the Solomon Islands by private minting houses — in this case almost certainly the Scottsdale Mint or a comparable contractor — with no meaningful connection to either Russia or Qatar beyond the licensing arrangement. At 0.31 g, it contains just under one-hundredth of a troy ounce of fine gold, making it more collectible novelty than store of value.
