Comment
There is a variant not listed in the catalogs where the fineness is situated at the top left on reverse.It would seem that there is also a version without any mention of the fineness.
Interesting fact
The 1995 Bahamas $10 Bullion-Flamingo coin is made of 99.9% gold and weighs 15.55 grams. It's a non-circulating coin, meaning it's not meant to be used as regular currency, but rather as a collector's item or an investment vehicle. The coin features a flamingo on the obverse (front) side, and the reverse (back) side bears the coat of arms of the Bahamas. The coin's unique design and high gold content make it a sought-after collectible among numismatists and gold investors.
