The legend BELIZE arcs along the upper periphery, with ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS running vertically along the left and right sides. The fineness statement 500/1000 FINE GOLD appears in the lower field beneath the shield, and a beaded border encircles the entire design. |

Belize gained independence from Britain in September 1981, making this 1980 issue one of the last coins struck under the name British Honduras — or, more precisely, one of the first under the newly adopted name Belize, which had been official only since 1973. The Central Bank itself had been established just two years prior. This piece belongs to a FAO-affiliated commemorative program promoting agricultural and botanical development, a series that produced some of the most architecturally eclectic gold issues to come out of the Caribbean basin in that decade.
The .500 fineness is notably low for a commemorative gold issue of this period, a deliberate cost reduction that kept the program accessible to smaller issuing nations with limited reserves.
