| Additional information |
Jamaica's 1992 Olympic commemorative program was produced for the Barcelona Games, where the island nation fielded a small but notable team. The cycling issue belongs to a broader Caribbean commemorative trend of the early 1990s in which smaller nations partnered with outside minting houses to capture collector revenue — the coins were never intended for domestic circulation and were sold almost entirely to overseas buyers through numismatic channels.
KM#159 is frequently found in original packaging, unsurprisingly.
