Barbados 5 dollars Shell Fountain PR68 PCGS proof silver coin 1982

The 1982 Barbados 5 Dollars silver coin beautifully portrays the Shell Fountain, one of Bridgetown’s most admired landmarks. Struck in proof quality and certified by PCGS as PR68 DCAM, this piece showcases the artistry and heritage of Barbadian coinage. On the reverse, the elaborate fountain is presented in fine detail, with streams of water flowing from sculpted shells and dolphins into the basin below. The beaded rim frames the design, while the bold inscription “FIVE DOLLARS” emphasizes the denomination. On the obverse appears the official coat of arms of Barbados, featuring the bearded fig tree shield, supported by a dolphin and pelican, surmounted by a knight’s helmet and crossed sugar cane stalks. Around the emblem are the inscriptions BARBADOS and the year 1982, along with the motto PRIDE AND INDUSTRY. This silver proof issue combines national symbolism with numismatic craftsmanship, making it a valuable addition for collectors of Caribbean history, architectural motifs, and certified coins.
