Reverse description A vivid colourised depiction of a Caribbean Reef Octopus (Octopus briareus) dominates the central field, its mantle and tentacles rendered in striking shades of blue and green with naturalistic texture, shown amid a seabed setting of rocky coral outcroppings and rising air bubbles against a dark underwater background. The country name GRENADA arcs across the upper field in raised Latin lettering, with the date 2020 inscribed immediately below. The species name Caribbean Reef Octopus appears in small lettering along the lower right portion of the field. The gold ground surrounding the colourised subject is polished to a prooflike finish, providing strong contrast to the vivid enamel colouration.
