The story

The front honours Marcus Garvey, the Jamaican-born activist and one of the island’s National Heroes, beside the national coat of arms and the logo for 60 years of independence. The back shows Dunn’s River Falls near Ocho Rios, one of Jamaica’s best-known natural landmarks, where visitors climb the terraced cascades. The note was issued to mark Jamaica’s 60th anniversary of independence in 2022.
