| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central depiction of a Common Spotted Cuscus (Spilocuscus maculatus) rendered in high relief, shown facing forward while clinging to a branch with its characteristic prehensile grip, its large round eyes prominent in the design. The legend 'ENDANGERED WILDLIFE' arcs along the upper periphery of the field, while the denomination '5 DOLLARS' is inscribed vertically along the lower right field. The finely detailed naturalistic rendering captures the distinctive facial features and fur texture of this arboreal marsupial. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The common spotted cuscus is native to the rainforests of the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea, and its appearance on a gold issue from Honiara reflects a broader regional trend in the late 2000s of Pacific microstates monetizing wildlife coinage primarily for the collector export market. These fractional gold pieces were never intended for domestic circulation — the Solomon Islands dollar was worth far too little for a 0.5g gold coin to function as currency at any practical face value.
