50 Cents - Charles III Peter Rabbit

Beatrix Potter's original Peter Rabbit illustrations entered the public domain in most jurisdictions decades ago, which has since triggered a flood of licensed and unlicensed numismatic products aimed squarely at the collectibles market rather than circulation. The Solomon Islands has become a frequent issuer of low-cost silver-plated iron pieces precisely because its nominal face values carry legal tender status without the overhead of a functioning domestic coin program.

Iron core with silver plating degrades predictably at contact points — worth noting for long-term storage.
