| Beschrijving keerzijde | Highly detailed bird's-eye view of the interior vaulted ceiling of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in Paris, rendered in antiqued high relief. The central oculus is surrounded by concentric rings of coffered arches and decorative stonework, with a circular Latin inscription encircling the dome opening. Four winged angelic figures in relief are positioned at the diagonal corners where the vaulted bays converge, conveying the grandeur of the Romano-Byzantine interior architecture. The legend SACRÉ-COEUR BASILICA appears within a rectangular cartouche at the top of the field, and the denomination 10 DOLLARS is similarly presented in a cartouche at the base. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Basilica of Sacré-Cœur was built on Montmartre partly as an act of national penance — French Catholics attributed the humiliating defeat in the Franco-Prussian War and the violence of the Paris Commune to moral failure, and construction began in 1875 as a direct consequence of that theology. It wasn't consecrated until 1919, delayed by the First World War. Solomon Islands has issued numerous large-format silver pieces under Elizabeth II targeting the commemorative collector market, a revenue stream common among smaller Pacific sovereignties with no particular connection to the subject matter.
