| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse depicts a dramatic nautical scene in which a tall-masted sailing vessel, rendered in fine relief, battles turbulent ocean swells. From the churning depths below the ship, a monstrous Kraken emerges with writhing tentacles threatening to engulf the hull, evoking the legend of the fearsome sea creature of maritime lore. The composition conveys dynamic movement and high artistic detail throughout the field. The country name 'ANTIGUA & BARBUDA' is inscribed as a legend along the upper periphery, while the date '2024' appears in the lower exergue. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Rum Runner and Kraken issue is part of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank's ongoing collaboration with the New Zealand Mint on themed collector releases aimed squarely at the international bullion and novelty coin market. The ECCB — which serves eight island states including Antigua, Dominica, and St. Kitts — has increasingly used these limited silver issues to generate foreign revenue, given the practical limitations on traditional seigniorage across such a small collective monetary zone.
Rum-running has genuine historical roots in the Caribbean, particularly during U.S. Prohibition between 1920 and 1933, when the region's proximity and established distilling infrastructure made it a primary supply corridor for American bootleggers.
