| Reverse description | A multicolour vignette occupies the centre of the note, portraying a sweeping coastal landscape with a tall palm tree in the foreground, a rocky hillside descending to a calm bay with small sailing vessels, and a village nestled along the shoreline. In the lower portion of the note, a swordfish is rendered in intaglio against a fine guilloche border, flanking the denomination "TWENTY DOLLARS" in a panel at foot centre. Floral motifs and the value numeral "$20" appear in each corner, with the bank title "EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK" inscribed across the top. |

| Comments |
The ECCB's suffix-letter system is one of the more unusual arrangements in Caribbean currency — each member territory's notes carry a distinct letter code, allowing the bank to track issuance by island while maintaining a unified currency. Anguilla (U) and St. Vincent (V) show only the Jacobs signature in this series, suggesting the transition to Venner, who took the governorship in 1989, either occurred after their local allocations were exhausted or those Venner-signed suffix variants simply haven't been confirmed.
The unlisted Grenada/Venner combination (G suffix) is a minor catalog gap worth noting for anyone completing a full signature run across all seven territories.
