Additional information

Issued to mark the 2000 Sydney Olympics, this coin belongs to a wave of Pacific island commemorative programs that proliferated in the late 1990s as small sovereign nations — many with no meaningful Olympic team presence — found the commemorative market a reliable source of revenue. Solomon Islands fielded a small delegation to Sydney, though the cycling program specifically was not among their competitive disciplines.
