Obverse description At centre, the interlaced cursive monogram of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) enclosed within an open laurel wreath, the two branches tied at the base. The legend EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK curves along the upper periphery, while the inscription 1 OZ · .9999 GOLD · TEN DOLLARS runs along the lower periphery, separated by a raised inner border from the milled edge.

Reverse description The full heraldic achievement of Saint Lucia's coat of arms occupies the centre of the field, featuring a quartered shield bearing a Tudor rose and a fleur-de-lis, surmounted by a torch-bearing arm as crest above an elaborate mantling and torse. Two Saint Lucia parrots (Amazona versicolor) serve as supporters to either side of the shield, each standing atop a triangular golden device. A three-part scroll beneath the shield carries the national motto. The issuer's name ST. LUCIA appears in cursive script at the upper field, rendered against a finely engraved radiating sunburst background, with the date 2023 in the lower exergue.

Additional information

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issues currency on behalf of eight member territories — Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, and Anguilla — a monetary union that has held the EC dollar fixed at 2.7 to the US dollar since 1976 without a single realignment. Collector gold in this series is struck to bullion standard but denominated far below melt value, a deliberate legal-tender fiction common to modern commemorative programs.
