| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length depiction of Saint Christopher, the patron saint of travellers, shown wading through turbulent waters while carrying the Christ Child on his left shoulder and leaning upon a tall staff held in his right hand. The Christ Child, seated upon the saint's shoulder, raises one hand in blessing and is surrounded by radiating sunbeams breaking through clouds above. Rocky mountain scenery fills the left background, with churning waves rendered in detail to the right. The purity mark 2G and the inscription .9999 FINEST GOLD appear in two lines across the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Saint Christopher" here refers not to the Caribbean island but to the third-century martyr whose veneration as patron of travelers made him one of the most widely depicted saints in medieval European coinage and pilgrim badges. Solomon Islands has issued a succession of small-format .9999 gold pieces in recent years under licensing arrangements that have little to do with the islands' own monetary history — these are effectively bullion collectibles produced for the international numismatic market, struck at contracted mints well outside Honiara.
