| Additional information |
Queen Elizabeth II visited Saint Kitts and Nevis in October 1985, less than two years after the federation gained independence from Britain in September 1983. The visit was among the earliest formal royal tours of the newly sovereign state, and this coin was struck specifically to mark the occasion — one of several Caribbean commemoratives produced in copper-nickel alongside a silver proof version for the collector market.
