| Reverse description | A fully colored depiction of a green dragon with spread wings and an open mouth, perched atop a wooden treasure chest overflowing with gold coins, set within a rocky cave opening rendered in high relief. The dragon is highlighted with teal and gold coloring, its red eyes and orange mouth lending dramatic intensity to the design. A circular border frames the central scene, and the legend DRAGON appears in gilded lettering within a banner along the upper rim. |

| Additional information |
Part of a broader wave of legal-tender bullion issues struck for Pacific island nations whose minting authority is effectively leased to private distributors — in this case almost certainly the Czech-based Czech Mint or a comparable European contract house. Solomon Islands has no domestic mint and issues coins of this type purely as a revenue instrument, with no expectation of circulation.
