Reverse description The reverse depicts an underwater diving scene evocative of Grenada's renowned dive sites. In the central field, the silhouette of a scuba diver is shown in horizontal swimming posture, accompanied by a second diver above and to the right. To the lower right, the partially encrusted hull and mast of a sunken shipwreck are rendered in fine detail, while the lower left quadrant features an elaborate coral reef formation with sponges and sea fans. The mirror-polished background simulates the reflective quality of open water. The country name GRENADA arcs across the upper portion of the field in large letters, with the date 2018 inscribed immediately below.

Additional information

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issues currency on behalf of eight member territories — Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Anguilla, and Montserrat — a monetary union that has held together since 1983 without the turbulence that has plagued similar regional arrangements elsewhere. This "Diving Paradise" piece belongs to a collector-focused bullion program launched by the ECCB to leverage the region's tourism identity rather than its fiscal infrastructure.

KM#19 is a modern commemorative with no circulation history.
