x: A 1976 10th Anniversary of Independence “Windmill,” in proof. I notice in the Wikipedia article (1 October 2019) on South Point Lighthouse, the Barbadian coin cited as depicting the lighthouse was not the (correct) 5-cent piece, but the (incorrect) 25-cent “Windmill.” (xx)
The 2004 Barbados 5-cent piece, surprise echo of Victoria and Albert.
