| Aanvullende informatie |
Barbados issued this coin in 1978 to mark the thirtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the UN General Assembly on December 10, 1948. The timing was deliberate — the Caribbean had particular reason to anchor itself to that document, given the region's history with colonial governance and the relatively recent independence of many of its states. Barbados itself had only become independent in 1966.
The .900 fine gold specification places it squarely in the commemorative bullion tradition of the late 1970s, when newly independent nations frequently used limited gold issues to generate foreign exchange and international visibility simultaneously.
