1978 Barbados Silver $25 Coronation Jubilee BU Specimen (OGP)
This striking 1978 silver coin from Barbados marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Struck in 0.925 fine silver, the piece contains 0.841 troy ounces of precious metal. It represents an incredibly scarce issue from the Franklin Mint in Pennsylvania, with a total mintage of only 69 pieces, making it an exceptional find for those studying modern numismatic rarities. The obverse of the coin displays a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by her name and the 1978 year of issue. On the reverse, the design features a crown positioned between an eagle and a unicorn, flanked by the dual dates of 1953 and 1978 to signify the jubilee milestone. The denomination of twenty-five dollars is also clearly inscribed on this side. Cataloged as KM-27, this Brilliant Uncirculated specimen stands as a fascinating example of Caribbean commemorative coinage.
