| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field features a bold, naturalistic depiction of a Spectacled Caiman (Caiman crocodilus) in left-facing profile, rendered with fine scale detail across its body, head, and tail. The reptile is shown in a low, crawling posture characteristic of the species, occupying the majority of the reverse field. The denomination '1 DOLLAR' appears in the lower field, while the word 'ENDURANCE' is inscribed above or around the design, referencing the national virtue associated with this issue. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, allowing the wildlife subject to dominate the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guyana's large-denomination circulation coinage of this period was minted under contract at the Royal Mint during a stretch when the country's copper-nickel alloy procurement was tied to long-term Commonwealth manufacturing agreements. The "Caiman" designation refers to the thematic wildlife series issued concurrently — a deliberate policy choice by the Burnham government to distinguish Guyanese national identity through indigenous fauna rather than the British-derived iconography the coins replaced.
KM#42 sees relatively little variation across the 1976–1980 span, though pieces from the earlier dates in the run show marginally sharper detail consistent with fresher dies.
