| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central gold-plated depiction of Wadjet, the ancient Egyptian cobra goddess, shown as a winged serpent with a solar disc atop the coiled body, set against a black nickel field. Four Eyes of Horus (Wedjat eyes) are symmetrically positioned in the four quadrants of the field, and an ankh symbol appears to the lower left of the central device. The entire design is framed by a dotted inner border and a reeded outer band with alternating gold and black segments. The legend 'WADJET' is inscribed in the upper field above the central motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Wadjet — the upright cobra goddess of Lower Egypt — has been a recurring subject in the broader "Gods of Egypt" bullion and collector series that various Pacific island nations have licensed through European minting houses since the early 2010s. Solomon Islands, like Niue and Tuvalu before it, functions here purely as a licensing authority, with the actual striking almost certainly contracted to a Central European facility, most likely in Poland or the Czech Republic.
The black nickel treatment with selective gold plating is a finishing technique that became commercially widespread after 2015, pioneered largely by the Mint of Poland for the collector market.
