Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate Barbados' independence from British colonial rule, which was achieved on November 30, 1966. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and the Barbados coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the country's transition from a British colony to an independent nation.
