| Additional information |
Trinidad and Tobago's cent coinage had been issued continuously since independence in 1962, but by 1982 the denomination was already economically marginal — inflation had eroded its purchasing power to near irrelevance. The country would eventually abandon the one-cent coin entirely in 2018, when the Central Bank officially demonetized it alongside the five-cent piece after decades of declining use.
