    The 1971 Bahamas 50 Cents silver proof coin, certified PCGS PR68 DCAM, is a stunning example of early Bahamian coinage that combines artistry with national symbolism. The obverse features the youthful crowned portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, encircled by the inscription “COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMA ISLANDS” and her name “ELIZABETH II”. The reverse showcases the spectacular blue marlin (swordfish), leaping dynamically out of stylized ocean waves. Its long bill and powerful body are rendered in exquisite detail, symbolizing strength, freedom, and the close connection of the Bahamas with the sea. The design is framed by the denomination “FIFTY CENTS” and the year of issue 1971. Struck in sterling silver to proof standard, the coin exhibits exceptional brilliance and strong cameo contrast, highlighting the marlin against deeply mirrored fields. This issue, preserved in near-perfect condition, reflects both the rich marine heritage of the Bahamas and the craftsmanship of its coinage. An excellent acquisition for collectors of wildlife, silver proofs, and Caribbean numismatics.
