Aanvullende informatie

Belize's dollar coinage of the early 1980s was produced by the Royal Mint under contract following independence from Britain in 1981, with the new Central Bank working to establish a distinctly Belizean numismatic identity. The Ringed Kingfisher series sat at the high end of the circulating denomination range but was never intended as a workhorse coin — pieces this size saw limited everyday use in a country where the economy ran largely on smaller fractions.

KM#71 is occasionally found with uneven cupro-nickel blanks from this period, a documented issue with Royal Mint contract strikes for smaller Caribbean issuers during the early 1980s.
