Each 2024 1 oz EC8 Silver Montserrat Starfish Coin is in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and comes in a clear plastic capsule. This edition represents Montserrat in the broader EC8 program, a coin series issued by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank with designs for each of the eight member territories.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2024 1 oz EC8 Silver Starfish Coin includes the official seal of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank. This bank manages the currency for Montserrat and seven other member nations. Montserrat is known for its volcanic landscape, including the active Soufrire Hills volcano, which has reshaped the island since a major eruption in the 1990s.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 2024 EC8 Silver Montserrat Starfish Coin is the image of a starfish. The area around Montserrat is home to several types of these sea creatures, such as cushion stars, nine-armed stars, and the royal sea star. The royal starfish is especially colorful, with deep purple and bright orange tones that stand out underwater.
History
Volcanic activity has made the ocean floor near Montserrat very unique, with a mix of shallow coral zones and deeper rocky areas. These conditions provide a great environment for starfish to thrive, thanks to the nutrients in the water and low levels of coastal development that allow marine life to grow naturally.
