| Reverse description | Full-length colorized figure of a female astronaut in a blue spacesuit striding dynamically across a rocky extraterrestrial surface, rendered in a vivid retro-futurist illustration style. She wears a transparent domed helmet with green headphones and carries equipment on her back, with a handheld device visible in her right hand. Behind her, a large red and orange planet dominates the upper field against a deep black starry sky. A sleek spacecraft is visible in the lower left field amid rocky outcroppings. The inscriptions 'RETROFUTURISM' and '1 TROY OUNCE 999.9 SILVER' appear in the field in white lettering. |

| Additional information |
Part of a broader "astronaut" bullion-adjacent series produced for the collector market, this issue has no connection to any Solomon Islands monetary policy decision or domestic circulation — it is a licensed product struck by a private mint and assigned a nominal face value as a legal formality required for coin status. The Solomon Islands has issued dozens of such face-value fictions since the early 2000s, a revenue arrangement common among small Pacific sovereign states with no meaningful domestic numismatic infrastructure.
