Aanvullende informatie

British Honduras issued copper-nickel 5-cent pieces through the latter 1930s while much of the Caribbean was still recovering from the Depression-era collapse in agricultural commodity prices, particularly mahogany and chicle — the colony's two economic pillars. The 1939 issue is notable for being among the last struck before wartime metal priorities disrupted normal coinage schedules across British colonial mints.

George VI's effigy appeared on colonial coinage only from 1938 onward, following his brother's abdication in December 1936 and the subsequent re-tooling of dies across the empire.
