A new coin.
The 1988 Bahamas 10 Dollars silver proof coin, graded PR70 Deep Cameo by PCGS, celebrates the momentous voyage of Christopher Columbus and his first sighting of the New World. On the obverse, Columbus is shown standing on the wooden deck of his ship, pointing forward as he beholds land for the first time. In his left hand he holds a scroll, representing the record of his discoveries. Behind him rise the masts and rigging, while another vessel sails in the background, completing the maritime composition. Around the rim are the inscriptions “TEN DOLLARS – SAN SALVADOR” at the top and “COLUMBUS DISCOVERS THE NEW WORLD – 1988” at the bottom. The reverse bears the right-facing crowned portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a pearl necklace, with the inscription “COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMAS – ELIZABETH II.” This flawless proof issue, with frosted reliefs and mirror-like fields, unites numismatic artistry with historical commemoration. A prestigious silver coin that recalls Columbus’ landing at San Salvador, the Bahamas, it is highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
