| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem, with a pearl earring and necklace visible. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left rim and SOLOMON ISLANDS along the upper right rim. The date 2008 is inscribed at the bottom of the field. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished proof field, consistent with the Ian Rank-Broadley style of portraiture. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued in 2008 to mark the 91st anniversary of the October Revolution — an odd commemorative hook, neither a round number nor a particularly significant interval — this coin belongs to the wave of Pacific island legal-tender silver issues produced almost entirely for the collector market, with the Solomon Islands government lending its authority to themes entirely disconnected from its own history. The arrangement is common among smaller Commonwealth nations whose mints issue on behalf of foreign distributors.
The Bolshevik seizure of power in Petrograd on October 25, 1917 (Julian calendar) toppled a Provisional Government that had itself only existed since February of that year.
