| Aanvullende informatie |
Solomon Islands has operated a prolific commemorative program since the 1970s, routinely licensing its mint authority to third-party producers targeting the collector novelty market. This piece — gold-plated iron struck well over a century after the Titanic sank in April 1912 — belongs firmly to that category. The wreck itself was not located until 1985, when a joint American-French expedition led by Robert Ballard found it in approximately 3,800 meters of water some 370 miles southeast of Newfoundland.
