| Beschrijving keerzijde | The arms of Saint Lucia displayed centrally, depicting a shield charged with a torch above a rose and a stump with shoots, supported on either side by two parrots with wings displayed, and a scroll beneath bearing the motto 'THE LAND THE PEOPLE THE LIGHT'. The legend 'ROYAL VISIT 1985' arcs across the upper field, while 'SAINT LUCIA' appears below the shield and '500 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower periphery. The engraver's initials 'JE' appear to the right of the shield base. The deeply mirrored proof field contrasts with the finely detailed frosted devices. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Saint Lucia issued this coin to mark Queen Elizabeth II's visit to the Eastern Caribbean in 1985, part of a broader royal tour that included several Windward and Leeward Islands. Such visits carried real political weight in the region during the 1980s, as several former British territories were navigating independence while retaining Commonwealth ties — Saint Lucia had only become independent in 1979.
KM#19 was produced in very limited numbers, consistent with the commemorative gold issues of small Caribbean states during this period, which were targeted almost entirely at the collector market rather than circulation.
