| Reverse description | The reverse displays a full-color rendition of the Montserrat territorial flag, prominently featuring the Union Jack in the upper left canton and the colonial badge to the right, depicting a woman in green robes holding a black cross and a golden Irish harp on a blue shield, with the date '2018' incorporated within the badge. The central design elements are rendered in vivid applied color against a polished gold field bearing vertical line engraving. A decorative beaded inner border frames the composition, and the outer border bears the legend 'MONTSERRAT' arching across the top and 'EMERALD ISLE OF THE CARIBBEAN' along the lower arc. |

| Additional information |
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issues coinage on behalf of eight member territories — Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Anguilla, and Montserrat — all sharing a single currency union established in 1965. These collector-oriented gold pieces sit well outside the day-to-day functions of that union, produced for the international numismatic market rather than any circulating need.
The applied color process on .9999 fine gold is technically demanding; adhesion issues are a known problem across the industry with this format, and buyers should verify the coloring remains intact at edges.
