| Beschrijving keerzijde | A finely engraved three-masted sailing vessel under full sail occupies the central field, depicted in profile moving to the right across a stylised sea, with a rocky coastline visible in the right background and smaller vessels in the distance. The word BAHAMA arches above in large spaced letters along the upper periphery within a beaded border. Below the maritime scene, a recessed rectangular tablet bears the three-line Latin legend EXPULSIS PIRATIS / RESTITUTA / COMMERCIA, commemorating the expulsion of pirates and the restoration of commerce to the Bahamas. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bahamian penny of 1806 is a product of Britain's Colonial Coinage Act arrangements, struck at Soho Mint in Birmingham under Matthew Boulton's operation — the same facility responsible for supplying coinage to multiple British colonial territories when the Royal Mint could not meet demand. The gold-plated copper composition designated KM#1a distinguishes it from the plain copper KM#1; whether the plating was applied officially or represents a later enhancement is a question the reference literature has not fully resolved.
