| Opmerkingen |
The Belize 75 Dollar note from 1984 is not a circulating issue — it was produced as a commemorative piece marking the 75th anniversary of Scouting in Belize, and was never intended for general use. That alone makes Pick CS1 an anomaly in any collection built around circulating Caribbean currency.
The gold foil bonded into the substrate is the real story here. This hybrid construction was exceptionally rare for 1984 and was chosen deliberately to give the piece a collectible permanence. Few central banks were authorizing anything like it at the time.
