10 Dollars - Elizabeth II Seaplane

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, established in 1983 to manage monetary policy across eight island territories, rarely issues gold coinage — most ECCB collector pieces are silver. This 2019 gold issue commemorates the flying boat and seaplane services that connected the Eastern Caribbean islands throughout the mid-twentieth century, when inter-island air travel depended almost entirely on aircraft capable of landing on water rather than prepared runways, which most islands lacked.
