| 正面描述 | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, pearl drop earring, and pearl necklace, as sculpted by Raphael David Maklouf. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a polished field, with fine detail in the hair and crown. The circular legend reads COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMAS, flanked by a beaded border, with the date 1992 appearing in the lower exergue. The initials RDM, attributing the engraver, are incorporated into the design. |

Issued to mark the 500th anniversary of Columbus's 1492 landfall, widely accepted by scholars to have occurred at San Salvador in the Bahamian archipelago — the island the Lucayan people called Guanahani. The Bahamas had particular standing to commemorate the event, and the 1992 quincentenary prompted commemorative programs from dozens of mints worldwide, most of them forgettable. At just over a kilogram of .999 silver and 101mm across, this piece sits at the heavy end of the commemorative kilo coin category that briefly flourished in the early 1990s.
Columbus's own journal entry for October 12, 1492 describes the Lucayan inhabitants offering gifts of parrots and thread — within two decades, those same people had been entirely eradicated through enslavement and disease.
