| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bahamas achieved independence from Britain on July 10, 1973, and this coin was part of a purpose-struck commemorative gold series issued for that occasion. The .750 fineness is a deliberate departure from the more common .900 or .9999 gold used in contemporary issues — a practical choice that kept production costs manageable for a newly sovereign central bank commissioning its first independent coinage.
