Barbados 5 cents South Point Lighthouse PR70 PCGS proof brass coin 1976

The 1976 Barbados 5 Cents proof coin is a remarkable tribute to one of the island’s most enduring landmarks — the South Point Lighthouse. Struck in brilliant proof quality and certified by PCGS with the prestigious grade PR70 DCAM, this brass coin captures both national heritage and numismatic perfection. On the reverse, the iconic South Point Lighthouse rises tall against a backdrop of stylized clouds and sea, a symbol of maritime safety and navigation. The denomination “FIVE CENTS” curves along the lower edge within a beaded border. The obverse proudly displays the coat of arms of Barbados, featuring the bearded fig tree shield, a dolphin, and pelican as supporters, surmounted by a knight’s helmet and crossed sugar cane stalks. Around the design appear the dual dates 1966–1976, commemorating the first decade of independence, alongside the inscription “BARBADOS”. Combining history, symbolism, and rarity, this flawless coin is an essential piece for collectors who value both cultural depth and pristine condition.
