| Additional information |
Part of a broader Olympic series issued ahead of the 1992 Barcelona Games, this coin was produced for the Solomon Islands by a foreign mint under licensing arrangements common to small Pacific island nations that lack domestic minting infrastructure. The Barcelona Games were the first since 1972 where no countries staged a boycott, making them a genuine point of international consensus after two decades of politically fractured Olympics.
