| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Belize occupies the central field, depicting two woodcutters as supporters flanking a quartered shield bearing tools and a sailing ship, surmounted by a mahogany tree, with the national motto 'SUB UMBRA FLOREO' on a scroll beneath. The arms are encircled by a wreath of laurel branches. The legend 'BELIZE' arcs across the upper field and 'FIFTY DOLLARS' along the lower field, with the fineness inscription '500/1000 FINE GOLD' appearing in the lower central field below the arms. A beaded border runs along the inner rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Belize gained independence from Britain on 21 September 1981, and this issue belongs to the inaugural set of gold coins struck to mark that transition. The .500 fineness is notably low for a commemorative gold issue of this period — most contemporary programs opted for .900 or .917 — likely a deliberate choice to keep the gold content affordable while still qualifying the pieces as gold coinage.
KM#66 was struck at the Franklin Mint, which held contracts with numerous newly independent nations during the 1970s and early 1980s for exactly this type of prestige issue.
