The Barbadian Dollar has been the currency of Barbados since 1973, when it replaced the Eastern Caribbean Dollar. It is normally abbreviated with the dollar sign $, or alternatively BBD $ to distinguish it from other dollar-denominated currencies. Apart from the regular circulating coinage, the country has also authorised some foreign mints to issue commemorative and bullion coins under its jurisdiction. These are typically in standard bullion sizes, including the large five ounces of silver format (abbreviated as 5 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). The coins are considered "Non-Circulating Legal Tender" (NCLT) because they are released at prices significantly higher that their bullion value, and are targeted at collectors and not at precious metal investors. This coin was issued to celebrate the accession of King Charles III to the throne of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth countries. King Charles III inherited the throne from his mother Queen Elizabeth II, who was the first and last monarch of Barbados - the country became a republic in 2021, before her death. | ||||||
