Page "Solomon Islands dollar" Paragraph 10

With a high national inflation rate, the 1 and 2 cent coins are becoming much less widely used, with prices often being rounded off to the nearest 5 cents instead due to a low valuation and shortage of these coins.

Unlike many of its neighboring south pacific countries, Solomon Islands remains one of the few in that region that has yet to discontinue the 1 and 2 cent coins and withdraw them from circulation.
