This specimen was lot 2189 in Goldberg sale 91 (Los Angeles, June 2016), where it sold for $470. The catalog description[1] noted, "Cayman Islands. 100 Dollars, 1974 NGC MS69. Winston Churchill Centenary. NGC graded MS-69 Silver Wings." This type was issued for the Cayman Islands in 1974. The island group south of Cuba was long ruled from Jamaica but came under separate administration after Jamaica obtained her independence in 1962. It is now famous as a tax haven and banking center much patronized by drug lords, ousted dictators and others seeking to avoid publicity.
Recorded mintage: 1,400 plus 6,300 proofs.
Specification: 22.68 g, 0.500 fine gold, 0.3646 troy oz AGW.
Catalog reference: Fr-2; KM-11.
