Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the Age of Exploration, with an image of a ship and a map of the world on the reverse side. This design was created to honor the historic significance of the Turks and Caicos Islands as a stopover point for explorers and traders in the 15th and 16th centuries. The coin's gold content and limited mintage also make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item.
