Either for the 5 cent butterfly coin.

 

I will look and see if I might have a double on one - you already have the '83, right?

 

I have the 1982 butterfly...





I am looking for the bronze or sterling silver butterfly 1984 coins...

 

Update to this OP - about 2 years ago I was able to secure an original 1984FM Specimen set of Trinidad and Tobago. It was a convoluted story but basically got it through a seller in T&T that refused to send to USA even via FedEx or any other means. How frustrating.
HOWEVER, I have some friends from Guyana and T&T and as they were visiting Port-au-Spain in T&T were able after great trouble able to get me my set and bring it safely back to me. They know people that worked in the Central Bank in '84 and it was known even then to be VERY difficult to get a hold offs there were so few available and evidently never offered for sale in the USA. This was the last year of FM T&T and no more struck by them.....

 

Absolutely first rate rarity is this set....A White Whale, so to speak!

 

Excellent find - beautiful condition too.
