| Reverse description | Three boys are depicted in the central field engaged in a game of cricket, with a batsman at center-left, a bowler to the right, and a third player in the background, rendered against a stylized architectural arch. The UNICEF logo appears to the lower right of the design, accompanied by the inscription 'unicef' beneath it. The legend 'FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE WORLD' arcs along the upper rim. The scene is executed in a fine relief characteristic of a proof strike. |

| Additional information |
Issued in conjunction with UNICEF's global fund-raising campaigns of the early 2000s, this piece belongs to a broad family of commemorative silver dollars struck by Commonwealth nations under similar licensing arrangements — Barbados among the smaller issuers in the series. Mintages for these UNICEF-affiliated issues were typically modest and largely absorbed by collector markets rather than circulation, leaving most survivors in original packaging.
