| Reverse description | A naturalistically rendered kangaroo stands in profile facing left in the centre of the field, depicted in a landscape setting with native vegetation including a tree to the left and eucalyptus foliage above, rendered in gold-toned relief against a gilt background occupying the left two-thirds of the reverse. The right third of the field is silver-toned with a radiating sunburst pattern emanating from the lower right. The vertical inscription 'KANGAROO' appears in raised block letters along the right margin, separating the two zones of contrasting finish. |

| Additional information |
The Solomon Islands has issued a steady stream of wildlife-themed coinage under foreign minting contracts, most of which have no circulation function whatsoever — struck for the collector market and legally denominated at figures no one would spend. This piece falls squarely in that category, produced under Charles III's reign for export sale rather than domestic use.
