| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Barbados occupies the left portion of the rectangular field, rendered in high relief and depicting a shield supported by a dolphin and a pelican, surmounted by a bearded fig tree and two crossed sugarcane stalks as a crest, with the national motto 'PRIDE AND INDUSTRY' inscribed on a scroll at the base. To the right of the arms, the country name 'BARBADOS' appears in bold raised lettering at the top, separated by a horizontal rule, followed by the date '2023', a second horizontal rule, the denomination '5 DOLLARS', and the fineness designation '1oz Ag.999' in the lower right field. |

| Reverse description | A detailed historical scene commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party of 1773 is depicted across the rectangular field. Colonists are shown rowing longboats toward a tall ship anchored in Boston Harbor, capturing the moment protesters boarded the vessel to cast cargoes of British East India Company tea into the water. The composition is rendered in antique finish with fine engraving, conveying the drama and historical gravity of the event. The commemorative legend '250 YEARS THE BOSTON TEA PARTY' appears as the principal inscription on the reverse. |
