A ribbon below the shield bears the national motto 'PRIDE AND INDUSTRY'. The legend 'BARBADOS' arcs along the upper rim, while the date '20 01' is split and positioned to either side of the arms in the field. The denomination 'FIVE DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Additional information |
Issued in conjunction with UNICEF's global fund-raising campaigns of the early 2000s, this piece belongs to a broad family of commemorative silver dollars struck by Commonwealth nations under similar licensing arrangements — Barbados among the smaller issuers in the series. Mintages for these UNICEF-affiliated issues were typically modest and largely absorbed by collector markets rather than circulation, leaving most survivors in original packaging.
