Pride and Industry

The obverse features a finely detailed image of the coat of arms of this beautiful independent island nation. As with every national seal, a story of the nation's history and pride is celebrated. This is certainly true for Barbados, a former British possession in the Caribbean. As the banner under the seal states, "Pride and Industry." 

Distinctive Trident Design

To say the reverse is very pleasing is an understatement. As with the obverse, the rim is encircled with the small beaded band. The focal point is the large trident head, broken clean from its staff. Derived from the nation's flag, the broken trident symbolizes Barbados independence from Great Britain. The trident is brilliant, though its surface has the appearance of being hammered. The background features gently swaying waves, perhaps symbolizing the cool, refreshing ocean breezes that blow onto the island. The visual effect is pleasantly calming. Two finer lines encircle the field, in which are inscribed the coin's purity, weight, and face value.

With this being the fourth annual release of the Barbados Trident series, and a limited mintage of only 5,000, you would do well to place your order early. Don't miss out on this opportunity to keep your Barbados Trident collection current!
