| Additional information |
Bermuda's gold issues of the late 1980s and early 1990s were produced primarily for the collector and bullion market rather than any domestic monetary function — the islands' real economy ran on the Bermudian dollar pegged one-to-one with the US dollar. KM#70 is part of a series that leaned heavily on the territory's appeal to foreign collectors, with mintages kept deliberately low through the Pobjoy Mint, which held the contract for Bermudian collector coinage during this period.
