| Additional information |
UEFA Euro 2020 was postponed by a full year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, eventually taking place across eleven European cities in June and July 2021 — which is why this coin, nominally dated to the tournament's original year, was issued in 2021. Solomon Islands has no connection to European football; the country is simply one of dozens of small sovereign issuers that license their minting authority for commemorative issues aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation.
