Additional information

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issues currency 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 — a monetary union that has operated continuously since 1965. Grenada's association with nutmeg runs deep: the island once supplied roughly a third of the world's entire crop, a dominance built on enslaved labor during the colonial period and later shattered by Hurricane Ivan in 2004, which destroyed an estimated 90 percent of Grenada's nutmeg trees.

This issue was struck in the final year of Elizabeth II's reign before her death in September 2022.
