A new coin.
The Barbados 5 Dollars “For the Children of the World” UNICEF silver coin, issued in 2001, is a moving tribute to the mission of UNICEF and to the universal right of every child to joy and play. The obverse depicts three children engaged in a cricket match: a young batsman in pads raises his bat beside the stumps, while a wicketkeeper and teammate stand nearby; behind them a pavilion or scoreboard adds context to the game. Around the upper rim runs the inscription “FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE WORLD,” and to the right the UNICEF emblem with globe and olive wreath accompanied by the word “unicef” reinforces the dedication. The reverse displays the national identity of Barbados with the full coat of arms: a shield bearing the bearded fig tree and floral motifs, supported by a dolphinfish and a pelican, surmounted by a helmet and an arm holding crossed sugar canes. The motto “PRIDE AND INDUSTRY” is inscribed on a ribbon below, with the country name BARBADOS above, the split date 20–01 at the sides, and the denomination FIVE DOLLARS at the bottom. Struck in silver to Proof Deep Cameo quality and graded PR69DCAM by PCGS, this coin combines numismatic artistry, national pride, and humanitarian symbolism, making it a desirable highlight for world collectors.
