| Beschrijving voorzijde | Gold foil non-circulating note issued to commemorate Antiguan independence in November 1981, with all design elements executed in relief against a dark background. The central vignette presents a panoramic coastal landscape with rolling hills and shoreline rendered in embossed gold, flanked by oval medallions: the national coat of arms to the left and a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II to the right. The denomination "30" appears in ornamental corner cartouches, with a signature line for the Minister of Finance and decorative guilloche borders framing the lower legend. |

Antigua & Barbuda gained independence on 1 November 1981, and this $30 note — struck on gold foil rather than paper — was issued as a commemorative piece to mark the occasion. The denomination itself is the tell: $30 corresponds directly to the date, the 30th day being a common commemorative device in Caribbean independence issues of the period.
Gold foil issues of this type were never intended for circulation. They were sold to collectors and presented as diplomatic gifts, which means surviving examples in poor condition are actually harder to explain than pristine ones.
