2024 Barbados $5 5-oz Silver El Dorado Sliding Motif Antiqued Coin
Feast Your Eyes On The Lost City Of El Dorado
Here’s a coin that hides a secret that thousands of people have perished searching for since hushed words of its existence were whispered into the ears of the first Europeans to explore South America. It’s the Lost City of El Dorado, the mythic “City of Gold” whose siren songs have enthralled explorers with its promises of untold riches and claimed thousands of lives since the 1500s.
The Amazon Rainforest Reveals The Lost City
At first glance, this exotic-looking antiqued coin struck in five ounces of highly puree 99.9% fine silver shows an intrepid explorer slashing his way through the thick jungle vegetation of the Amazon rainforest. Could this be the last image of famed British explorer Colonel Percy Harrison Fawcett during his final expedition into Amazonia in 1925? If it is, you can help the long-lost Colonel reach his goal by sliding the two sides of the coin apart to reveal a gold-plated image of El Dorado gleaming as if the jungle has parted to reveal the lost city’s golden treasures!
It’s a reveal worthy of any grand opening—and one that only a select few collectors will ever bear witness to since a miniscule mintage of just 249 coins have been struck for worldwide release! Issued on behalf of Barbados, an independent British Commonwealth nation located on an island in the eastern Caribbean, this legal-tender $5 coin will come beautifully housed in its original mint packaging along with a mint-issued Certificate of Authenticity.

You don’t have to search any longer because we’ve found El Dorado right here. And it can be yours ,too, but only if you act fast because with just 249 coins struck for worldwide release, this mintage may soon be a mirage to all who are late to the party!
