Question
I never see any Bahamas proof sets later then 1999. Did they stop minting proof sets? If so then why?
Hi Tom, the last mint sets and Proof sets listed in the Standard Catalog of World Coins are dated 1992. The lack of enough profits may have put an end to the sets.
I believe the Royal British mint does most of the minting for the Bahamas.
