| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The portrait, engraved by Ian Rank-Broadley and identified by the initials IRB beneath the truncation, presents the Queen in a mature likeness with a small drop earring visible. The surrounding legend reads ELIZABETH II to the left and SOLOMON ISLANDS to the upper right, with AU999.9 to the right and 150 DOLLARS below the right field. The date 2020 appears in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
The Solomon Islands has operated as one of the more prolific licensing jurisdictions for celebrity and sports commemorative coinage since the 1990s, issuing legal tender pieces with face values that bear no relationship to their bullion or collector market worth. This Schumacher issue appeared a full six years after his 2013 skiing accident left him with severe brain injury — at a time when his medical condition remained closely guarded by his family and public interest in his fate was still acute.
At 46.65 grams of .9999 fine gold, the weight corresponds to a nominal 1.5 troy ounce specification.
