5 Dollars Independence

Descrizione del dritto	The national coat of arms of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago occupies the central field, featuring a shield supported by a Scarlet Ibis on the dexter side and a Cocrico on the sinister side, with a ship and the national motto displayed on a scroll below. A palm tree surmounted by a helmet and wreath forms the crest above the shield. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO arcs along the upper periphery, with the national motto TOGETHER WE ASPIRE TOGETHER WE ACHIEVE rendered on the scroll beneath the shield. The date 1982 appears in the lower field below the arms, with the Franklin Mint mark visible above it.

Informazioni aggiuntive	The 1982 issue marks Trinidad and Tobago's twentieth anniversary of independence from Britain, achieved on August 31, 1962. The nation had been a single Crown Colony since 1889, a administrative consolidation the two islands' populations never entirely embraced. KM#48 was struck in copper-nickel rather than the silver used for earlier commemoratives in the series — a cost-driven decision reflective of the global silver price volatility of the early 1980s.
