I believe this was sold at Colin Adams Sale of Halfcrowns in 2005, and a wonderful coin which seems to be certified by PCGS as a "55" currency...
Ah yes, poor olde Krause, departed and missed, however many flaws. Have you seen matte versions of the 1975FM dollar, two dollars, five dollars?...
Update: I do not see evidence of a copper nickel uncirculated 1989 Bahamas 2 dollar silver piece. I did locate 1976 and 1977 FM pieces in matte...
In short, no! There were no specific records of which coins were struck when but seems to be the case that none were struck for upcoming or future...
