Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change in Belize, which was then known as British Honduras. The coin was minted in 1906-1907, just a few years before Belize became a crown colony in 1914. This change in status marked a significant shift in the country's political and economic relationship with Great Britain, and it had a profound impact on the country's development. Despite this change, the coin still features the image of King Edward VII, who was the reigning monarch at the time of its minting. This fact highlights the enduring connection between Belize and the British monarchy, even during times of great change and upheaval.
