Beschrijving keerzijde A large fully-rigged galleon under sail dominates the right portion of the field, accompanied by additional vessels in the background, evoking the 1588 Spanish Armada engagement. To the left, a crowned Royal Arms shield within a laurel wreath is depicted in relief. The arc legend THE HISTORY OF GREAT BRITAIN curves along the upper rim, the date 1588 appears below it to the left, and the inscription 1/2G .9999 FINEST GOLD is engraved along the lower rim.

Aanvullende informatie

The Spanish Armada's defeat in 1588 owed as much to weather as to English seamanship — persistent Atlantic storms scattered and wrecked roughly half the fleet of 130 ships as it attempted to return home around the Scottish and Irish coasts. Philip II reportedly received the news in silence.

This is one of a proliferating class of fractional gold issues struck under Solomon Islands authority as a nominal issuer of convenience, with no meaningful connection to the subject matter.
