| Beschrijving keerzijde | A pre-Columbian ceremonial sacrificial knife, depicted in high relief at the center of the field, featuring a detailed anthropomorphic figural handle surmounting a broad axe-form blade. The design is framed by a decorative border of repeating geometric chain-link motifs encircling the periphery. The denomination FIFTY DOLLARS is inscribed in two lines beneath the knife in the lower field. The Franklin Mint mark, year, and fineness notation appear in small characters to the right of the denomination. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of a broader BVI series commemorating pre-Columbian Arawak and Carib material culture, this issue was produced by the Franklin Mint under license during the period when that company aggressively marketed collector gold to Caribbean territories. The .500 fineness — unusual for a gold commemorative — kept production costs low while allowing a nominal gold content claim on marketing materials.
Mintages for Franklin Mint BVI issues of this period were typically controlled by subscription demand rather than governmental monetary policy.
