| Additional information |
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issues commemorative silver almost exclusively through licensing arrangements with overseas minting houses, and this eel-themed piece is part of a broader aquatic wildlife series designed to appeal to the thematic collector market rather than circulate in the eight OECS member territories. Elizabeth II's effigy here dates from a period when several Commonwealth mints were already preparing for transition following her death in September 2022, making it uncertain at the time of striking whether this would become one of the final issues bearing her portrait under ECCB authority.
