Eastern Caribbean 8 Silver Coins

When most people envision paradise on Earth, they think of pristine white sand, cerulean blue water, a gentle coastal breeze and swaying palm trees—in other words, they envision the islands of the Caribbean. Along the eastern edge of the Caribbean Sea, several tiny islands stretch in an arc from Puerto Rico to Venezuela, and each offers some of the most serene natural beauty in the world.

To celebrate the exceptional splendor of the Eastern Caribbean islands, Scottsdale Mint offers a massive series of silver and gold coins. The Eastern Caribbean 8 coins feature scenery and wildlife from the eight most beautiful islands in the Eastern Caribbean, and each coin is available also in a colored version, where a central feature of the coin has been painted in vibrant hues. Investors and collectors alike can appreciate the fun and beauty of Scottsdale Mint’s Eastern Caribbean 8.

What are the Eastern Caribbean 8?

The unique and lovely designs of the Eastern Caribbean 8 silver coins are inspired by the natural majesty and history of eight island nations in the Caribbean Sea:

• Anguilla
• St. Kitts and Nevis
• Antigua and Barbuda
• Montserrat
• Dominica
• St. Lucia
• St. Vincent and the Grenadines
• Grenada

These islands are some of the smallest, some of the oldest, and some of the most breathtaking in the Caribbean. Each island nation has a distinctive story in its history, geology, and ecology, which Scottsdale Mint captures in its Eastern Caribbean 8 coin series.

Each Eastern Caribbean 8 coin is legal tender in the Eastern Caribbean States, which includes all eight nations listed above. As such, on the reverse of each coin, the profile of Queen Elizabeth II is featured along with the weight, purity, and denomination of the coin.

Types of Eastern Caribbean 8 Coins

Scottsdale Mint’s Eastern Caribbean 8 coin series is extensive, giving collectors and investors plenty of variety. Every year, the mint offers a new design per island, struck in both silver and gold with colorized and non-colorized options. The silver coins are 1 oz. of .999 fine silver, and the gold coins are 1 oz. of .9999 fine gold.

Colorized coins are coins that are partially or completely painted after minting, which allows them to have striking color integrated into their designs. Eastern Caribbean 8 coins colorize dominant features, like native birds, sailing ships, country coats of arms and more. While the vast majority of colorized coins are painted after they have been minted and released, Scottsdale Mint’s colorization process provides a superior finish worthy of display in any coin collection.
