Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Cent - Elizabeth II (Bronze) 1973-1976 from Belize is that it was the first coin to feature a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, which was a departure from the previous coinage that featured a depiction of the British monarch. This change was made to reflect Belize's transition to a crown colony in 1973, with Queen Elizabeth II serving as the head of state.
