| 背面描述 | A highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a Yellow-Headed Amazon parrot (Amazona oratrix) perched in three-quarter view on a bare branch extending across the lower field, with a leafy spray rising behind the bird to the upper left. The plumage is rendered with fine engraved feather detail against a mirror-polished proof field. The denomination TEN DOLLARS is inscribed in two lines along the lower left arc of the coin, following the inner beaded border that frames the design. |

Belize gained independence from Britain in September 1981, and this issue belongs to the first wave of commemorative coinage struck under the newly sovereign Central Bank — an institution that had existed for barely a year when KM#69a was produced. The Yellow-Headed Amazon series was part of a broader Wildlife Conservation program that Belize promoted internationally in the early 1980s, partly to attract foreign collector revenue at a time when the young nation's foreign exchange reserves were extremely thin.
The .925 silver version was struck alongside a base metal counterpart, with the silver pieces directed almost entirely at the export collector market rather than domestic circulation.
