These were packaged in sets with the other denominations and mass-marketed to collectors in the United States. The natives of the islands, which lie east of Puerto Rico, use U. S. coins. These handsome proofs feature the green-throated Carib and Antillean crested hummingbirds. Some of the dates at the end of the series are quite scarce (less than a thousand made).<br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' 181,000 proofs plus 53,000 uncirculated specimens.<br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' bronze, reverse designed by Gilroy Roberts.<br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' KM 1.<br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * Michael, Thomas, and Tracy L.
