| Opschrift voorzijde | ELIZABETH II EAST CARIBBEAN STATES 2003 RDM TWO DOLLARS |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a detailed high-relief composition depicting Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson in full naval uniform, his three-quarter-length figure dominating the left foreground, adorned with decorations including the star of an order on his chest. Behind him, an animated battle scene renders multiple tall-masted sailing warships amid billowing cannon smoke and turbulent waves, evoking the Age of Sail in the tradition of Trafalgar commemorative imagery. The legend HORATIO NELSON arcs along the upper rim, with the life dates 1758-1805 inscribed directly below in the upper field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issued this piece as part of a commemorative series timed loosely around the bicentenary of the Battle of Trafalgar, fought in October 1805. Nelson died aboard HMS Victory during that engagement — shot by a French sharpshooter from the rigging of the Redoubtable at a range of roughly 15 meters. The gold-plated copper-nickel format was a deliberate concession to accessibility, allowing wider distribution of what is functionally a collector's piece rather than circulating coinage.
KM#54 is among several issues the ECCB produced in this format during the early 2000s, none of which saw meaningful circulation.
