For sure, most of the coins for the EC8 the design fits very well.
Nice one! The wreath reminds me of something the last 2 years. :)
What a coincidence Elizabeth coin was created in my year of birthday. The appearance of the queen and her crown is beautiful unlike other designs that show the face of heroes greatly. Leaves of plants are wonderful as a feather
They have been using that design in several different series but there are still many that use the older version of the Queen
The Eastern Caribbean is known for its plants and fishes.
Great design with good illustration
It does have a great design and with so much detail. The pictures are pretty good but you can definitely see much better detail when you are holding it in you hand.
This is a beautiful illustration and the fish fits perfectly in the Eastern Caribbean theme.
Yes, I agree it is very nice and the EC8 has many other coins that fit into the Caribbean theme also.
Nice coin. Inspired by your series on coins you have acquired, I recently took delivery of one of the Queens Platinum Jubilee set of coins issued by the Royal Mint to start off my collection. It was an absolute steal as i only had to pay postage of £2.50. Planning a post to show it off soon. So thanks for the inspiration. !hivebits

Another quality coin, Michael. Looks nice.
Thanks John
Having a nice finish and a shiny feature attract eyes to it. Nice one here
It's funny how shiny objects catch your eye.
Nice shiny!

The rope border gives this coin an other EC8 coin a nice touch, kudos to Scottsdale.

Another nice coin in your collection. You must have a very extensive collection that keeps growing.
Thanks Bob. I wouldn't exactly say my collection is extensive but I do have a fair amount.
I like the rope details in the edges of the coin.
Beautiful!!!
