Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1972 Bahamas $100 Gold Coin is that it features a unique portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by sculptor and engraver Arnold Machin. The coin's obverse depicts a young and regal Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a crown and facing right, surrounded by the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II" and "BAHAMAS." This design was specifically created for the Bahamian coinage and has not been used on any other coins.
