Surrounding the floral central device is a stylized composition of sky and ocean waves rendered in low relief, evoking the natural landscape of the island. The territorial name 'CURAÇAO' is inscribed as the primary legend, arching along the upper periphery of the coin. The Spanish flower flan shape frames the entire design with its characteristic lobed outline. |

| Additional information |
The Centrale Bank van Curaçao en Sint Maarten was established under the 2010 dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles, when the five-island federation was dismantled and Curaçao and Sint Maarten each became autonomous constituent countries within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The bank assumed monetary authority over both islands, continuing the Netherlands Antillean guilder under a new issuing name — an arrangement that remains one of the more unusual shared-currency setups among Caribbean jurisdictions.
Nickel plated steel replaced the earlier nickel compositions as cost pressures on small-denomination coinage increased across the region through the 2010s.
