| Additional information |
Barbados has issued a series of marine-life bullion rounds under its dollar denomination framework, a program that began gaining international collector traction in the 2010s and has since expanded into high-relief sculptural strikes. This 93.9g format places it among the heavier single-coin silver issues in the Caribbean series — a weight chosen specifically to accommodate deep-relief die work that a standard one-ounce planchet cannot support without loss of detail in the lower fields.
KM#479 is among the more recent entries in the Barbados aquatic wildlife program, struck in 2024 by a private mint under license.
