| Additional information |
Jamaica introduced bimetallic coinage for the twenty-dollar denomination in 2000, part of a broader rationalisation of the island's coin series as the dollar's purchasing power continued to erode through the late 1990s. The non-magnetic specification distinguishes this issue from a later variant struck in steel-core planchets — a distinction that trips up collectors working without a magnet on hand.
