A new coin.
The British Virgin Islands $1 silver coin (1979) captures the elegance and freedom of the magnificent frigate birds, masters of the Caribbean skies. On the reverse, two frigates are depicted in flight — one soaring gracefully above while the other rests on a branch, wings partially spread. The design highlights every feather and curve with incredible depth and realism, complemented by the inscription “One Dollar.” The obverse features the youthful effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Arnold Machin, surrounded by “Elizabeth the Second – British Virgin Islands – 1979.”
Struck in brilliant silver Proof quality and certified PCGS PR68DCAM, this coin combines numismatic artistry with the serene spirit of tropical wildlife. Issued by the Franklin Mint, it remains one of the most beautifully crafted pieces in the island’s wildlife-themed series. A superb collectible merging elegance, nature, and royal heritage.
