| Additional information |
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, established in 1983 as the monetary authority for eight island territories, issues commemorative coinage collectively rather than under individual nation names — which is why this piece carries no single country attribution. The Sisserou, endemic only to Dominica and listed as critically endangered, has been a focal point of conservation efforts since habitat loss from hurricanes, particularly Maria in 2017, devastated old-growth forest canopy across the island's interior.
