| Coins & Notes of Bermuda |
|
|
| Since 1970, when it issued special proof sets to commemorate Bermuda's first decimal coins, the Authority has generated additional revenue through its successful numismatic programme. The Authority issued several commemorative coins during the 1970's and early 1980's and, since 1984, at least one commemorative or collectors coin or set, made of gold, silver or palladium, has been issued annually. Generally, the Authority issues one or two coins or coin sets each year to commemorate an anniversary or event of local significance and have a local design theme. The mintage limits of these issues are very low (sometimes as few as 200 coins). The Authority also participates in international commemorative coin programmes arranged and distributed by the British Royal Mint, MDM Münzhandelsgesellschaft MBH Deutsche Münze, or Spink Modern Collections. In 1992, the Authority introduced its first commemorative note to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the discovery of the New World.
