The front of the coin shows a beautiful Caribbean scenery. In the background, a hydroplane is flying in front of a mountain range. A girl with a beautiful floral dress watches the plane from the edge of a tropical forest. The top of the coin shows us where this all is taking place: on the beautiful Caribbean island Dominica.
The first we notice is that it doesn’t say Commonwealth of Dominica on the back. In big letters, we read “EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK” at the top. This is the monetary authority for a group of eight Caribbean islands. It manages the currency and financial stability for this group of countries. The logo of this bank is a pair of palm leaves. Inside those leaves is an old acquaintance, Queen Elizabeth II.
Conclusion
This coin from the Commonwealth of Dominica shows a beautiful scenery which reminds me of holidays. What’s your take on this Caribbean coin?
