John Logie Baird stands as one of the most influential innovators of the twentieth century, a pioneering Scottish inventor whose work laid the foundations for modern television. His breakthrough demonstrations of televised images transformed communication forever, shaping the way the world would see, learn and connect.
The John Logie Baird Super Size Gold Luxe Edition Coin pays tribute to this extraordinary legacy with a striking large-format commemorative release. Issued as legal tender by the Solomon Islands in 2026, the coin captures the importance of Baird’s contribution to science and technology through a carefully considered design.
Struck in an impressive 50mm format, the coin is finished with gold plating and colour detailing, and completed to a proof-like standard that enhances the depth and clarity of the design. The obverse features the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, confirming its status as a genuine legal tender issue.
Each coin is presented in a black leather presentation box and is accompanied by a dedicated certificate of authenticity, offering a fitting setting for a piece that celebrates one of Britain’s greatest technological pioneers. Issued as a one-off release, this Super Size Gold Luxe Edition is designed for collectors seeking a bold and meaningful tribute to innovation and invention.
