Beschrijving voorzijde The national coat of arms of Belize occupies the central field, supported on either side by a bare-chested woodcutter, the dexter supporter bearing an axe over his shoulder and the sinister holding a paddle. The shield displays crossed tools over a sailing vessel, with a mahogany tree surmounting the crest. A scroll beneath the shield bears the national motto SUB UMBRA FLOREO. The legend BELIZE arcs along the upper periphery, with ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS inscribed vertically on either side, and the fineness inscription 500/1000 FINE GOLD appearing in the lower field. A beaded circle frames the entire design at the rim.

Aanvullende informatie

Belize issued a series of gold holiday coins in 1979, of which this is one — a category that attracted strong collector interest in the late 1970s as newly independent nations sought foreign exchange through numismatic programs. Belize gained independence from Britain in 1981, meaning this coin was struck while the country still operated as British Honduras in all but name, having only formally changed its designation in 1973.

The .500 fineness is notably low for a gold commemorative of this period, a deliberate cost decision that kept the melt value accessible while still qualifying the piece as a gold issue.
