Interesting fact

The 1974-1978 Bahamian Elizabeth II dollar coin is unique in that it features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a tiara, rather than the traditional crown. This was a deliberate design choice made by the Bahamian government to differentiate their coinage from other Commonwealth countries.
