The Bahamas
The Bahamas is an archipelago of islands located just to the east and south of Florida. The Bahamas is a former British colony and a Commonwealth Realm. It also has one of the highest GDP per capita rates in the world.
The Bahamas consists of about 3,000 islands to the north of Cuba with a population of only about 250,000. The islands were discovered by Columbus in 1492, but they were not settled by the Spanish. In 1626, they came under British influence which has continued despite brief periods of Spanish control. Full independence was gained in 1973, but The Bahamas remains a member of the British Commonwealth.

Bahamian Coins
Bahamas own coins were first issued in 1966, before this British coins were used.
