Apart from its regular circulating coinage, Solomon Islands has authorised a number of mints to issue collector coins in precious metals, which are legal tender in the country but are not intended for general circulation. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes - typically, one ounce of silver (abbreviated as 1 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). These are usually dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes not related to the country itself.
Listed below are coins considered "bullion" - i.e. released at prices close to their intrinsic value. See also a separate list of premium (Non-Circulating Legal Tender) one-ounce silver coins. |
