Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change for Belize, which was then known as British Honduras. The coin was minted in 1949, just a year after the country gained its independence from Britain, and it features the image of King George VI, who reigned until his death in 1952. This coin is a unique piece of history that reflects the transition of Belize from a British colony to an independent nation.
