2022 Gold 1 oz Montserrat: Sea Turtle Proof (Colored)

2022 Gold 1 oz EC8 Montserrat: Sea Turtle Proof Colored

Scottsdale Mint, in partnership with the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB), is returning for the annual release schedule of the extremely popular EC8 8-coin series. The series features stunning bullion offerings from the eight Eastern Caribbean Island nation members. Included are Antigua & Barbuda, Anguilla, Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

Each of the previous 8-coin editions quickly became best-sellers and maintained strong series popularity throughout the full release cycle. Now, with this 2022 release, BOLD is continuing to experience high demand, both during presale offerings and live releases.

Sea Turtle

This new 2022 Montserrat edition of the ECCB EC8 series highlights the beauty and simplicity of sea turtles. Hopefully, this brings attention to the fact that six of the seven known sea turtle species have been identified to be at risk of extinction.

The highly attractive obverse is common to the series. The inset features the Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Distinctive laurels of evergreen shrubs frame the portrait on either side, nearly filling the center inset. A narrow band encircles the rim, which includes the inscriptions, "EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK. 1 oz .999 GOLD . QUEEN ELIZABETH II . TEN DOLLARS."

The reverse depicts two sea turtles, lazily swimming in the warm ocean waters off the coast of Montserrat, with one dominating the scene while the other floats in the background. The turtle in the foreground is colored in reds, oranges, and browns, with shades of blue on its underside. Inscriptions are: "MONTSERRAT" at the bottom rim, and "2022" above it.

This 2022 Gold 1 oz EC8 Montserrat: Sea Turtle Proof Colored coin offering features a truly stunning scene, well worthy of its place in the 2021 ECCB EC8 eight-coin bullion series! Whether you are collecting the series, or just interested in this specific Montserrat release, you will not be disappointed. Go BOLD!
