Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Jamaican 20 Dollars (Independence) 1972 gold coin is that it was minted to commemorate Jamaica's independence from British colonial rule, which was achieved on August 6, 1962. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a depiction of the Jamaican national symbols, including the Ackee fruit and the Swallowtail Hummingbird, on the reverse. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and investors.
