Red polymer fields turn the 10 Dollars into a Pacific Games issue, where national emblems, sport and the eagle motif converge in one commemorative design.
Design & Symbolism
Obverse
The obverse combines the Solomon Islands flag, fish carvings, the national coat of arms, the Pacific Games logo, three paddles and an eagle head within a red and multicolour polymer layout. The CBSI Argentum patch and Safeguard substrate give the note a modern commemorative presence, while the SI/23 prefix links the design directly to the Solomon Islands Pacific Games in 2023.
Reverse
The reverse carries the Games narrative through athletes participating in rugby, basketball, weightlifting, soccer, running and body building, with three paddles and the eagle head repeated as unifying motifs. The composition presents the event as more than a sporting programme, placing athletic competition within a national celebration hosted in Honiara.
