| Obverse description | The obverse displays the arms of Barbados at center, featuring a shield supported by a dolphin on the left and a pelican on the right, surmounted by crossed tridents above a helmet and mantling. A scroll at the base of the shield bears the national motto PRIDE AND INDUSTRY. The denomination DOLLAR arcs along the upper field, with the date split as 20 and 19 flanking the arms on either side, and the legend BARBADOS arcs prominently along the lower field. Two trident symbols appear in the lower left and lower right fields as secondary decorative elements. |

| Additional information |
Barbados has issued a long-running series of legal tender collector coins under licensing agreements with major entertainment properties, and this piece falls within that program. The Central Bank's participation in such arrangements is largely a revenue mechanism — these coins are sold at significant premiums to collectors worldwide and rarely, if ever, see domestic circulation.
KM#113 is the catalog anchor, but attribution within this series can shift depending on which licensing cycle the issue falls under.
