Informazioni aggiuntive	Botswana's early commemorative silver program was timed deliberately to coincide with the country's post-independence consolidation period — this piece was issued just twelve years after the 1966 declaration of independence from Britain. The .500 fineness was a practical compromise, keeping silver content meaningful while reducing production costs for a young central bank with limited hard currency reserves. KM#11 is one of the more accessible issues from this series, with mintages sufficient to keep prices honest.
