The Turks and Caicos Islands
The islands were part of the UK's Jamaican colony until 1962, when they assumed the status of a separate crown colony upon Jamaica's independence. The governor of The Bahamas oversaw affairs from 1965 to 1973. With Bahamian independence, the islands received a separate governor in 1973. Although independence was agreed upon for 1982, the policy was reversed and the islands are presently a British overseas territory.

Turks and Caicos Coins
Turks and Caicos issued its own coins for the first time only in 1974. Only commemorative coins appear to be issued as the US dollar is used as the normal circulation currency. A Turks and Caicos crown is equivalent to one US dollar.
We usually have in stock at least a few Turks and Caicos coins. The mintage figures tend to be quite low, although perhaps this is to expected with a population of about 19,350.
