Scottsdale Mint debuted the Barbados Trident coins in 2017. These silver coins had such a great reception from investors that the 2018 coins had a mintage of 30,000. The mint also created gold versions of these coins. Since the coins are so popular, the mint created a unique 2018 design with a special pineapple privy on the reverse. Today, you can purchase the 2018 Barbados Trident Pineapple Privy 1 oz Silver Coin from Provident Metals in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
Highlights:
The coins in this listing have legal tender status in the country of Barbados. In fact, the coins face value is $1 in Barbadian dollars (BBD). These 2018 coins have a new background field on the reverse side. The coins in this listing ship in BU condition.
Obverse
The obverse face of the 2018 Barbados Trident Pineapple Privy 1 oz Silver Coin showcases the coat of arms for the country of Barbados. The shield features a hand emerging from the helmet above. There are also two crossed sugarcane stalks, which honors one of the primary crops of the island nation. On this side of the coin, you will also see a small trident head located below the 18 in the date mark.
Reverse
On the reverse side of these coins, you will notice the head of a trident. It appears on the national flag of Barbados. Many people associate the trident with the weapon of the God of the Sea, Neptune. Even though the trident is a real tool, most people think of Neptunes tridents power to control the oceans. To the right of the trident, you will see the pineapple privy mark that makes these coins unique.
History
The Scottsdale Mint released the initial Barbados Trident coins with a background field on the reverse that featured waves of the ocean instead of the national flag. This new design was well-received with both collectors and investors.
