3 Dollars - Laniarius Mufumbiri New Providence

The Laniarius mufumbiri — the Papyrus Gonolek — is a vividly marked shrike restricted almost entirely to papyrus swamp margins in the Albertine Rift, nowhere near the Bahamas. This is a conservation-themed bullion-adjacent issue in the ongoing New Providence wildlife series, a format the Bahamas has used to attract collector markets rather than address any domestic monetary need. The bird has no geographic or cultural connection to the issuing nation.
