| Obverse description | The coat of arms of Sint Maarten occupies the central field, featuring a quartered shield supported on either side by pelicans with spread wings, and surmounted by a flaming torch held aloft. The arms are encircled by a decorative chain or beaded border at the base of the shield. The legend SINT MAARTEN arcs along the upper periphery within a chamfered inner border, and the date 2018 appears in the lower field. |

| Additional information |
Sint Maarten has no currency of its own — the island uses the Netherlands Antillean guilder, and before that the East Caribbean dollar in its French half. A "1 Peso" denomination issued by the Dutch side of the island has no monetary basis whatsoever, which places this piece firmly in the category of fantasy or private issue coins sold to collectors rather than circulated legal tender. The Dilophosaurus theming reinforces that: this is novelty bullion-adjacent production, not a sovereign emission.
