Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the United States' bicentennial in 1976, but it was not issued by the United States government. Instead, it was issued by the British Overseas Territory of Turks and Caicos Islands, which has its own coinage. This coin is a unique example of a foreign territory issuing a coin to celebrate a significant event in the history of another country.
