| Additional information |
Solomon Islands has issued collector-targeted novelty pieces under central bank authority since the 1970s, but the gold-plated iron series of the 2010s and 2020s represents a particularly sharp pivot toward the souvenir market — iron cores being essentially valueless as metal, with plating thin enough to wear through within months of handling. These are not struck for circulation and would corrode rapidly in the humid Pacific climate if they were.
