| Reverse description | Two West Indian flamingos, the national bird of the Bahamas, stand facing one another in a symmetrical composition, their elongated necks gracefully curved inward. Between them, a stylised rising sun emerges from a calm sea rendered with horizontal wave lines, its radiating rays filling the upper background field. Lush tropical vegetation and flowering plants frame the lower portion of the design, adding naturalistic depth. The denomination numeral 10 appears at the top of the field, with the legend DOLLARS inscribed immediately below in the upper register. |

| Additional information |
The Bahamas has issued flamingo-themed coinage intermittently for decades, the bird having appeared on Bahamian currency since the decimal system was introduced in 1966. This 2024 issue follows a well-worn modern bullion format popular with Pacific and Caribbean sovereign minters who license designs through the Perth Mint and similar facilities — the actual striking location worth confirming before attributing any production details.
