Bahamas, non existent coins

I believe many of the following do not exist. Does anyone have any of these in their collection or have any other information?

I have the following coin: BAHAMAS KM60 5 CENTS 1989

Hi,

I don't have any of them....

Ole

That's weird. I just checked the first one: 1¢ Bahamas 1983. KM says the mintage was 8 friggin' millions, yet I couldn't find a single picture in Google Images.

I have more than 100 different coins from the Bahamas, but none of the ones on your list.

I have 130 different coins from the Bahamas, and have actively sought them as a country I collect, and have none of the coins on your list.

I think that all 50 cents and 1 dollar were made only for mint sets, except for the year 1966. Some of the coins that you mentioned may also exist only in some scarce or rare mint sets.

But anyway, Bahamas is a big problem for those who collect coins by year. I couldn't find any of the coins that you mentioned (not even a image), and I can add many other coins to your list.

Hello,

 

Even a long time later, I have an answers : I have all the coins on your list for 1989, 1991, 1996 and 2000. They are from the Brilliant Uncirculated sets.

 

However, I've been looking for years, but I've never found even a photo of the following coins :

KM#59 1 cent 1983
KM#60 5 cents 1983

KM#63 25 cents 1987

KM#59A 1 cent 1999
KM#60 5 cents 1999
KM#60 5 cents 2006

 

I think they don't exist and should be removed from the catalog. 

I don't understand why Krause and Schon are listing them…


 

Maybe they were minted but then recalled?

Would explain why there might be official information about it, but no pictures. 

I have 59a, 60, 61 and 63.2 in my collection. If needed, I can supply photos of these four coins.

OK. I am away from my coins right now, but within 48 hours.

No problem at all.

I apologize. I just checked my coins and I don't have any of the YEARS mentioned, just the KMs. My bad. You can disregard my post.

No images to be found online. I can only find written records.

very interesting.

It may be there are only Franklin Mint collector sets of these coins.

SRV5490I have the following coin: BAHAMAS KM60 5 CENTS 1989

That is the Proof version. But is there a normal circulation coin of this year?

I have found 2 different sets for the year 1989: proof and brilliant unc. So 2 versions of 5 cents do exist, but I collect only coins for circulation (regular UNC).

 

This is my 5 Cents 1989 coin. It doesn't look Proof, and I don't know if it was taken from a BU Set. I'm sorry for the low quality of the images.

It seems BU, but I´m not 100% sure

Yes, for me it seems BU too, but of course, is difficult to be 100% sure.

I checked my Bahama-coins (about 35 pcs.) but none of this list were among.

Hello, I agree with the list of non-existing Bahamas coins that are in the catalog. But there are three additional coins I have not been able to verify that are not on this list: 1985 1 cent (KM59 brass), 2007 1 cent (KM 218.1), and the 1970 FM 25 cents (KM 6). So here is the complete list of non-existent Bahamas coins that I have:

1 Cent KM59

1983

1985 (brass)

 

1 Cent (KM 59a)

1999
 

1 Cent (KM 218.1)

2007
 

5 Cents (KM 60)

1983

1999

2006

 

25 Cents (KM 6)

1970 FM
 

25 Cents (KM 63.1)

1987

 

If these indeed do not exist, what steps need to be made to remove them from the catalog? Thanks!

Your list matches my personal research into the matter.

 I don't have any of them ether.  Have 32, 1 cent coin in my collection.
