| Obverse description | The central field displays the full arms of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas: a quartered shield depicting a rising sun above a sailing ship upon waves, supported on the dexter by a marlin and on the sinister by a flamingo, surmounted by a conch shell crest atop a helmet and mantling. Below the shield, a scrolled banner bears the national motto FORWARD UPWARD ONWARD TOGETHER. The circumscribed legend COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMAS arcs around the upper periphery within a beaded border, and the date 1983 appears in the lower field. The mint mark CHI is visible to the lower left of the shield. |
