| Additional information |
Bernard Montgomery's connection to the Eastern Caribbean is essentially nonexistent, which is precisely the point. These issues — produced under license by foreign minting companies and marketed to collectors rather than circulated — were a revenue mechanism for smaller currency authorities during the early 2000s, when commemorative coinage programs proliferated across the Caribbean. The ECCB issued dozens of such pieces across this period, most sharing the same host specifications.
Montgomery himself died in 1976. The 2003 date places this nearly three decades after his death, with no particular anniversary to justify the subject.
