The 2022 1oz silver Anguilla eel coin is another great product of the EC8.
Since 2018 the Scottsdale Mint has been producing 4 coins a year for each of the 8 Caribean Island groups in the ECCB (Eastern Caribean Central Bank). Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent, and the Grenadines.
The obverse features the normal side profile of Queen Elizabeth II with a frosted background. The outer rim has a proof like finish inscribed with EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK, the weight and purity, the monitary value and the name QUEENELIZABETH II.
The reverse features two eals swimming with a over the top look at the ocean and the island Anguilla in the background. There are some wavy lines around the outside with the inscription ANGUILLA 2022.

I've been keeping an eye out from any of my retailers this side of the border for 2021 St Kitts & Nevis, 2021 Anguilla, & 2020 Antigua & Barbuda from the EC8. Awesome coins.

Oh yes, those are very nice coins. I have the St Kitts & Nevis but not the other two in those years.
Nice coin. I don't think I have seen a silver coin with eels on top of it.

Thanks, it is a little unusual lol
There is probably not much that hasn't been on a coin at some point.
The silver coin is nice. Excellent for collecting !
Thanks, yes I agree
Man Scottsdale Mint presses some nice coins.

Yeah they do, and for a bunch of different Countries.
Beautiful coin, @maddogmike!
Antigua coins are coins that I don't have.
