1976 Bahamas Gold $50 Elizabeth II Proof
Struck to commemorate the inaugural year of independence for the Bahamas, this 1976 gold coin represents a pivotal moment in modern Caribbean history. The coin is minted in proof condition with a fineness of 0.925, containing 0.0805 troy ounces of pure gold. With a highly limited mintage of just 2,207 pieces, it remains a scarce and intriguing artifact of Bahamian sovereignty. The obverse side of the coin displays a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a crown, surrounded by the name of the issuing nation. On the reverse, the design showcases a tobacco dove, which splits the face value of fifty dollars, with the 1976 date positioned to the right of the bird. Cataloged as KM-69, this issue beautifully marries natural imagery with national milestone celebration.
