Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design that showcases a Ming treasure ship, which is a replica of a 15th-century Chinese trading vessel. The ship is depicted sailing through the waters of the Solomon Islands, surrounded by lush tropical islands and coral reefs. The design is a nod to the rich history of maritime trade and exploration in the region, and it adds a touch of cultural and historical significance to the coin.
