| Beschrijving voorzijde | Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in a contemporary portrait style, enclosed within a wreath of two laurel branches flanking the central field. A circular legend surrounds the design in the outer ring, reading EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK at top and QUEEN ELIZABETH II at bottom, with 1 OZ .999 SILVER and TWO DOLLARS inscribed along the sides. The portrait is uncrowned and lightly draped, consistent with the Rank-Broadley or a similar late-reign effigy. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the wreath providing a classical framing device. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issued this piece as part of a bullion and collector program that sits somewhat awkwardly alongside its mandate — the ECCB governs the fixed-rate EC dollar shared by eight island territories, a currency pegged to the USD at 2.70 since 1976 without interruption. Collector silver issues denominated in EC dollars are more fiscal curiosity than circulating reality.
The Caribbean reef octopus, Octopus briareus, is native to the shallow reef systems of exactly the waters these territories border — one of the few cases where a coin's subject and its issuing geography are genuinely inseparable.
