Beschrijving keerzijde Gold foil reverse on a dark background dominated by a large embossed central vignette of an underwater reef scene, with two Four-eye Butterflyfish rendered in fine relief swimming among coral formations and sea vegetation. The denomination "30" is repeated in each corner within decorative cartouches, and a floral guilloche border frames the composition. The caption "Four-eye Butterflyfish" appears within the central vignette, with "THIRTY DOLLARS" inscribed in a ruled panel along the lower margin beneath a foliate ornamental frieze.

Opmerkingen

Issued to mark the third anniversary of Antiguan independence, this gold foil note was never intended for circulation — it belongs to a category of commemorative currency produced in the early 1980s when several newly independent Caribbean states experimented with precious-metal and novelty substrates as a revenue stream from collectors rather than from commerce. The gold foil format made standard printing impossible; the imagery was instead stamped and embossed into the material.

Antigua & Barbuda achieved full independence from Britain on 1 November 1981, which dates this piece precisely.
