| Obverse description | The obverse face of this spherical coin features a circular flat medallion set into the globe's surface, displaying the coat of arms of Barbados in full heraldic detail: a shield bearing a bearded fig tree, supported by a dolphin dexter and a pelican sinister, surmounted by a fist grasping two crossed sugarcane stalks. A ribbon scroll below bears the national motto PRIDE AND INDUSTRY. The legend BARBADOS arcs above the arms, flanked by the date 20-23, while the denomination 5 DOLLARS appears below, with the fineness and weight indicators 3 oz Ag 999 completing the circular inscription. The surrounding sphere surface is enamelled in vivid blue representing the world's oceans, with three-dimensionally rendered silver continents emerging in high relief. |

| Additional information |
Barbados has issued collector silver in this weight class before, but the dual KM reference here — KM#350 and KM#355 — suggests two distinct struck varieties share the same basic type, likely differing in finish or edge treatment rather than design. Worth confirming before cataloging as a single lot.
