Additional information

Issued under posthumous authority following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022, this piece is part of a wave of Pacific island commemoratives that flooded the market in 2023 as mints raced to exhaust licensed designs before royal portrait rights were formally reassigned. The Solomon Islands, a Commonwealth realm that transitioned to Charles III as head of state, continued issuing Elizabeth II-denominated commemoratives well into 2023 — a legally permissible but commercially motivated practice with little numismatic precedent at this scale.

The Tigger and Piglet licensing runs through the Disney corporation's acquisition of the A.A. Milne estate rights.
