| Additional information |
Jamaica's decimal coinage was introduced on September 8, 1969, replacing the colonial pound system as part of a broader push for economic self-determination following independence in 1962. The "Wide Legend" designation distinguishes this type from a later die modification — a subtle but catalogued variation collectors use to differentiate early from later production runs within the KM#49 series.
