3 Dollars - Elizabeth II

The Bahamian $3 note is one of the few surviving three-dollar denominations still in active circulation anywhere in the world — a curiosity that survives here partly by tradition and partly because the value maps usefully onto local fare pricing. The denomination dates to the 1965 Bahamian dollar introduction and has outlasted far more conventional denominations in neighboring Caribbean states.

Oberthur Fiduciaire's 2019 production updated the security package on an otherwise conservative series. This is Elizabeth II's final series appearance on Bahamian currency before the republic transition; Charles III does not feature on a replacement $3 as of this writing.
