Marking 40 years since the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster, the 2026 50c 40th Anniversary of Chernobyl Iron Proof-Like Coin serves as a solemn commemorative tribute to one of the most significant events in modern history. The design powerfully integrates the iconic radiation warning symbol with a detailed silhouette of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, evoking the gravity and lasting legacy of the catastrophe that affected millions and reshaped global nuclear safety standards.

Struck to a Proof-Like finish on an iron base with selective gold plating, this coin captures the sombre atmosphere of the event and the abandoned city of Pripyat. Issued by the Solomon Islands, it is presented in a specially designed illustrated collector card.
