Additional information

Struck in the year the Bahamas held its first general election under universal adult suffrage, this coin was part of a commemorative gold set issued to mark the moment — a political inflection point that brought Lynden Pindling and the Progressive Liberal Party to power for the first time, fundamentally reshaping the islands' path toward independence, which followed in 1973.
